The Evolution of Human Hunting
The successful early adaptations of man involve a complex interplay of biological and cultural factors. There is a rapidly growing number of paleontologists and paleoanthropologists who are concerned with hominid foraging and the evolution of hunting. New techniques of paleoanthropology and taphonomy, and new information on human remains are added to the traditional approaches to the study of past human hunting and other foraging behavior. There is also a resurgence of interest in the early peopling of the New World. The present book is the result of the Ninth Annual Spring Systematics 10, 1986, in the Symposium, on the Evolution of Human Hunting, held on May Field Museum of Natural History ...
DeBlicquy
This study summarizes archaeological excavations in the DeBlicquy site, Bathurst Island, Northwest Territories and the resulting data gathered in July 1961 of a typical Thule culture winter village of the Canadian High Arctic. Stylistic analysis suggests that the site was occupied during middle Thule times and can probably be dated between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries A.D.
Hahanudan Lake
Archaeological investigation of two small house-pit sites located at Hahanudan Lake near the village of Huslia in the Koyukuk River drainage of western interior Alaska has produced lithic assemblages with Norton and Ipiutak culture characteristics. Radiocarbon dating indicates that cross ties are with the latter. This work expands the previously inland range of Ipiutak culture which is known primarily from coastal sites in northwestern Alaska.
Grant Lake Site, Keewatin District, Northwest Territories
The Grant Lake site, located on the Dubawnt River in west-central Keewatin District, consists of a number of horizontally discrete living floors that pertain to the Agate Basin complex of the Palaeo-Indian period. It is proposed that the environment during the occupation between 6000 and 7000 B.C. was similar to present conditions.
The Nodwell Site
A report on the Nodwell Site, a mid-fourteenth century ancestral Huron-Petun village site, that was almost completely excavated in 1971 by a joint National Museum of Man and Royal Ontario Museum expedition.
Tipi Rings and Plains Prehistory
This study compares a model of the relationship between tipi and the tipi ring, using primarily ethnographic information, to data from the British Block Cairn site in southeastern Alberta. It demonstrates that the tipi required a considerable investment of raw materials, and, as a result, the tipi ring is a product of a carefully reasoned decision on the correct anchoring strategy for a given environmental setting.
Archaic Sequence from the Strait of Belle Isle, Labrador
The evidence is presented for man’s continuous occupation of the Strait of Belle Isle region of Labrador from approximately 8,000 – 9,000 years ago until 3,000 – 2,000 years ago when the local Maritime Archaic tradition was interrupted by a possible environmental change and the appearance of Dorset Inuit.
