Underneath the Museum of the North in Fairbanks are rows upon rows of artifacts from across the state. One group of items, unearthed during the construction of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System, still have a role to play in Alaska’s modern development process. Scott Shirar, Archeology Collection Manager, offers a behind the scenes look at the artifacts, while Assistant Field Manager Bill Hedman (Bureau of Land Management) discusses the challenge of organizing data that is over 40 years old.
