Located near Dufferin West, the Draper site was a pre-settlement Indigenous site with both Eastern Iroquoian and Huron influences. The artifacts discovered at this site shows the culture from a hunting and gathering lifestyle to the transition to a farming community. This could be seen based on evidence non-artifactual items found at the site. This shows a clear transition by indigenous people from a hunting society to a more farm based economy. The Draper site slowly grew from a small village into a larger community which at its peak housed over 2000 people.
