It shows strong connections between the native peoples of Alaska and Siberia.

The Gallagher Flint Station Archaeological Site is also best known for its traces of human habitation. Experts attribute this to the location?s proximity to a game-rich tundra and the hill?s commanding view of its vicinity.
