A Late Woodland paddle in association with a dugout canoe from Cape Porpoise, Maine, USA
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In 2019, Professional archaeologists and volunteers of the Cape Porpoise Archaeological Alliance (CPAA) excavated and recovered the remains of a dugout canoe that was located during a surface survey of the Cape Porpoise tidal flats in Kennebunkport, Maine. A sample of the canoe dated to between AD 1275 and 1380 making it the oldest known from the region. Three days later, a CPAA citizen scientist returned to the site and recovered the remains of a paddle that carbon dated to a time that is contemporaneous to the canoe. A report of a later Woodland period dugout canoe from Cape Porpoise, Maine, USA was published in 2020 providing new insight into pre-Contact watercraft technology in the Far Northeast and emphasizing the promise of citizen science initiatives for identifying and recovering delicate archaeological materials that are exposed and under threat from rapidly changing coastlines. This is an addendum to that report that offers additional and supporting information.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
