 The project focused on remains from several houses excavated and associated midden with fine geo-stratigraphic control; over one million faunal remains (from shellfish, mammal, bird and fish) allow for detailed reconstruction of animal use. Researchers studied
 the dynamic interactions between humans and animals-- focusing especially on their response to several large-magnitude earthquakes, periods of climate change, and an increase in sheltered habitat.   </span><o:p></o:p></p>
