Makkovik is an Inuit community in
Labrador. It is accessed by air 210 km (130.5 mi.) out of Happy Valley-Goose Bay. The community was started in 1860 when Torsten Kverna Andersen emigrated from Norway and established a small trading post. Subsequent settlers and local Inuit created the town of Makkovik.
A variety of archaeological sites are active or in progress that give insight into the past inhabitants of Makkovik.
