Iron in the Northwest

The article Ozette Indian Village Archeological Site says iron is presumed to have washed ashore from Asian ships, but Metallurgy in pre-Columbian America says it was made by native smiths before European contact. This seems like an important issue to resolve, whether or not the Iron Age began anywhere in the Western Hemisphere before European contact. -- Beland (talk) 22:40, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good article, IMO

As a random person looking at this article, I think it is excellent (and IMO deserves a lot better than the Wikipedia C grade it appears to have above). I learned a lot from it. I would nominate it as a Good Article on Wikipedia, but since I'm not a contributor, I'm not allowed to do that (it appears only article contributors are allowed to do that). Anyway, congratulations to the contributors to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.87.70.241 (talk) 05:06, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
