Three millennia ago, Native Americans on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula occupied a key seasonal fishing camp on a bar of the Hoko River. Over the centuries, these ocean-oriented peoples discarded cordage, basketry, bent-wood fishhooks, tools, and other cultural materials. These perishable items were remarkably preserved in wet, low-oxygen river deposits.
