Comments
JaEj-?, Pamiok Island: Lee found three longhouses at this site and excavated two of them. Longhouse 2 convinced him that these were Norse structures, but they are generally accepted to represent Dorset occupations of this region. Lee did not report a Borden designation for this site. The coordinates and Borden block have been inferred by consulting a gazetter that lists Pamiok Island.
