A description, analysis and interpretation of the Hood site (AiHa-7), a large Historic Neutral town excavated during the summer of 1977. In addition to offering a glimpse of Historic Neutral life just prior to their dispersal in the mid-seventeenth century, this report provides a basis for comparison and assessment of the unusual assemblage from the nearby and contemporaneous Hamilton site. An attempt is made to explain inter-site variability through documented cultural-historical events and also by an explanation of possible sample biases. This publication also includes the report "The Bogle I and Bogle II Sites: Historic Neutral Hamlets of the Northern Tier."

The early historic, ca. A.D. 1615, Neutral Iroquoian Christianson village site (AiHa-2) proves to be integral in the development of the historic Neutral sequence and the understanding of fur trade related events in early seventeenth century southern Ontario. The following aspects of the Christianson site are emphasized: an examination of the ecological factors which may have influenced the placement of the village; the morphology of the site, focussing on interior longhouse planning; and, analysis of the artifact assemblage.
