Context (Amendments / updates)
This object was previously entered as from '?Southampton Island' and collected by Graham Rowley in 1936. However it is marked 'N.IV.16', which corresponds to those objects excavated by Rowley in June 1937 at the site of Neawhatolik, Strathcona Sound, drawings of which are in his excavation notebook (XA/1/39/2). The Place field and Field Collection have been updated accordingly.
