As provincial archaeologist in the mid-1980s, she co-edited the publication series "Archaeology in Newfoundland and Labrador" during the 7 years it was printed (Thomson and Sproull-Thomson 1980; 1981; 1982; 1983; 1984; 1985; 1986).
Secondly, women have and continue to be role models for other women, both in academia and in the field; and thirdly, women's perspectives in archaeology in Newfoundland and in archaeology general were not sufficiently recorded in the past and therefore it is important to illustrate their contributions now.

No archaeological sites are reported from the study area, and previous studies in interior areas of the Northern Peninsula likewise failed to reveal any evidence of aboriginal occupation.
While the results of this survey and of previous surveys in more or less adjacent areas and similar areas of the Northern Peninsula revealed no trace of Native occupation, it might be prudent to survey at least selected areas of the proposed flooded zone prior to flooding.
Given the distances involved, and the fact that all resources found in the study area are available in other areas nearer to known concentrations of prehistoric peoples, it is probably unlikely that the study area was ever exploited in a significant way by aboriginal hunters.
