About eight kilometres west of the Donjek, on Lake Creek just south of mile 1146 on the Alaska Highway are the ruins of some log houses examined by archaeologists in the 1940’s. At that time no one at Burwash Landing knew who lived there. The cabin floors were made by removing the earth to the layer of volcanic ash and then spreading down spruce boughs. Stones which were heated and then dropped into moose stomachs to cook food were found on the floors. One cabin had small red pictographs of stylized animals. Among artifacts found were stone tools, a two-sided bone comb with engraved decoration, unusual iron skin scrapers, an empty rifle cartridge, a string of glass beads, and the end of a metal spoon.
