Abstract

Archaeological field schools for Inuit conducted in 1987 and 1988 at the Nunaingok site, extreme northeastern Quebec-Labrador, were centred on the excavation of a sod qarmat and an associated midden. Preliminary results of the excavations indicate that the dwelling was repeatedly occupied by historic Inuit and clarify the seasonality of occupation. As well, data recovered from underlying Thule culture deposits shed new light on prehistoric Neo-Eskimo occupation of the site.
