Ozette Indian Village Archaeology Site

In 1970, tidal erosion uncovered an ancient whaling village at Ozette, parts of which had been covered by a mud slide hundreds of years ago.

The artifacts which were found during archaeological excavations now classify Ozette as one of the most significant archaeological discoveries ever made in North America. A sample of these artifacts are now displayed at the Makah Cultural and Research Center, in the fishing village of Neah Bay.
