Taphonomy and Archaeology in the Upper Pleistocene of the Northern Yukon Territory
Author: Richard E. Morlan
Publisher: University of Ottawa Press
ISBN: 177282089X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
The concept of taphonomy has been borrowed from paleontology and applied to the analysis of vertebrate fossils from the Old Crow region of the northern Yukon Territory. By means of this approach, archaeologically significant specimens have been isolated from the larger suite of materials which can be explained entirely in terms of natural processes. The analysis indicates that human occupation began in eastern Beringia more than 50,000 years ago and probably was continuous from that time onward, but primary archaeological deposits will be needed to clarify the historical and paleo-environmental significance of these finds.

Anahim Lake Archaeology and the Early Historic Chilcotin Indians — Vertebrate Faunal Remains from the Potlatch Site (FcSi-2) in South Central British Columbia
Author: Roscoe Hall Wilmeth
Publisher: University of Ottawa Press
ISBN: 1772820776
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Excavation of a number of pit house sites at Anahim Lake in the central plateau of British Columbia has resulted in the definition of five components, the last two attributed to the Chilcotin. There are significant resemblances between these two components and Athabaskan complexes recorded elsewhere in North America. In this second part of this publication, analysis of the vertebrate remains from Potlatch site reveal much about the subsistence of the Chilcotin. Significant changes occurred in the percentage of vertebrate remains through time. Evidence of butchering and artifactual modification are discussed. Range changes of several species are of zoological interest.

Tipi Rings and Plains Prehistory
Author: James T. Finnigan
Publisher: University of Ottawa Press
ISBN: 1772821020
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
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.
