Radiographs are used to age archaeologically-recovered vertebrae of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus sp.). In application, the method provides an explanation for observed size variability in vertebrae from the site of Namu, on the central coast of British Columbia. The results also provide a means for assessing the species and seasonality of the Namu salmon fishery and demonstrate a consistency in fishing patterns during 4000 years of site occupation
