Utilizing this figure along with White's site-size estimate of 2.2 acres (approximately 8,903 meters squared) gives a population estimate of 445 for the Iroquoian village at Eaton. During the spring term of 1992, Neil O'Donnell received a small grant from the Division of Natural and Social Sciences at Buffalo State to construct a composite map of all known excavation units, including the 5 ft x 5 ft units excavated by the Houghton Chapter in the 1960s and early 1970s.
