Context (Field collection)
Hut 1. Excavated in August 1937 by Thomas Lethbridge during the 1937 Cambridge Expedition to North West Greenland and the Canadian Arctic, led by James Mann Wordie. According to Lethbridge (1938), this was the same rectangular house that Thomas T. Paterson began excavating 3 years earlier during the 1934 Wordie Expedition. Lethbridge did not include the results in his 1939 article (JRAI, vol. 69(2), pp. 187-233), noting that it would be ‘published by T.T. Paterson in due course’. See MAA photo collection for lantern slides and photographs; see the University Library for excavation notebook (MS Add.9258/3).
