An abundance of animal remains were recovered from across the Lawson site including a large amount of fish bones. Most were from species that lived locally, but lake fish remains, suggestive of extensive fishing trips down the waterways to the Great Lakes, were also present. The Lawson site is a fortified 16th century Indigenous site located at the confluence of Medway River and Snake Creek. The site has been known to archaeologists since the mid-1800s and is now an Ontario designated heritage site and part of the Museum of Ontario Archaeology’s grounds.
