Stanley A. COPP

Abstract

Field school excavations at Fort Langley National Historic Park, British Columbia (1988-1996) reveal the presence of multiple pre-contact First Nations' occupations dating ca 200-8400 years B.P. Excavations of the historic Hudson's Bay Company depot (1839-1888) uncovered features which aid Canada Parks Service reconstruction plans for the fort.
