Finding Aid, Swan Lake Canoe 22WS776

Summary

The MCX-CMAC utilizes the standard archival practice of “unique naming” of collections. The purpose of this is to avoid redundant and confusing collection names commonly found with archaeological investigations. Therefore, this collection is referred to as "Swan Lake Canoe, 22WS776.” This naming practice is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folder titles, and box labels. The linear extent of this collection is half (0.5) an inch.

Only three folders compose this collection. One oversized item was removed to appropriate storage. All field and catalog records were duplicated according to the Cobb Institute’s requirements. The copies were also packaged in acid-free folders and labeled identically to the original folders, with the exception of a notation indicating that the folder contains copies. These copies are stored separately from the originals.
