An Alaska storm scattered artifacts. Archaeologists are racing to save what's left

Last year's Typhoon Halong wreaked havoc in Alaska, damaging homes, infrastructure, and an important archaeological dig site in Quinhagak. The storm scattered valuable artifacts that offer insights into ancient Indigenous cultures. Archaeologists are now urgently working to salvage these pieces before another storm hits, recognizing the irreplaceable cultural and historical significance of the site. This effort underscores the fragility of our shared heritage in the face of natural disasters.
