Abstract

An introduction to the newly-formed Petun Research Institute, its repository and the facilities available to archaeologists working in this area of Ontario history and prehistory. Highlighted is the faunal research project recently begun by Peter Hamalainen and Janet Cooper under the PRI umbrella, focussing in its initial phase on the rich faunal artifact recovery from the Sidey-Mackay site excavated by Wintemberg in the 1920s and Garrad in the 1970s.
