Hayden, Brian, (editor.). Simon Fraser University. Department of Archaeology. (Added Author). SFU Faculty publication. (Added Author).

Summary: The 1973 excavations at the Draper and White sites were part of the Pickering airport salvage project which was oriented toward the recovery of settlement pattern inform ation. There is strong indication that a major determinant in the location of both sites was proximity to soils suitable for maize horticulture, to water sources and possibly to areas of high game density. Defense may also have been a major locational determinant at both sites. There is tenta tive evidence for a palisade at Draper.
