This report describes our research in both of these areas, under a Newfoundland Government permit from the Gov- ernment of Newfoundland and Labrador issued to Jamie Brake of the Nunatsiavut Archaeological Office for work in Hamilton Inlet, and permits to William Fitzhugh issued by the Quebec Ministry of Commu- nications and Culture and the Quebec Natural Resources Department for research on the Quebec Lower North Shore. Surveys of Groswater Bay and the Narrows: In Hamilton Inlet, our objective was to survey part of the eastern section of the Narrows and the southern shore and adjacent islands of Groswater Bay. This area has never been systematically surveyed for archaeological sites although some of its outer reaches have been visited by archaeologists and ornithologists who reported a few sites. Inuit and settler camps used for hunting, fishing, trapping, and berry-picking are prevalent everywhere along the shores of the Narrows, and sporadically along the shore and islands of Groswater Bay, generally with open-water seal-hunting and fishing camps on the islands and mainland, and winter camps on the mainland in sev- eral locations. A lack of deep-water bays and harbors makes use of the mainland coast difficult except when the coast is ice-bound. The survey was to identify sites and promising locations, not to conduct excavations. Brador: Hart Chalet Inuit excavation: Research in Brador was to focus on excavations at House 3, one of three winter dwellings at the Hart Chalet Labrador Inuit village located west of the mouth of the Brador River. This site was originally identified by René Levesque in 1968 and is located where Clifford and Florence Hart of Brador built a cottage a few years later. At the time it was thought to be a Basque site on the basis of roof tiles and large spikes and nails found there.

Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page. We hope the characters and the things they learn and talk about also give the reader a better understanding of our province. Above all, we hope this book challenges your curiosity and encourages you to search for more information about our land. Don McDonald Director of Programs and Services Newfoundland and Labrador Literacy Development Council ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank the many people who so kindly and eagerly helped me during the production of this book.

JOHN’S, NEWFOUNDLAND 1974 CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE TABLE OF CONTENTS Accompanying maps Map 1, Map 2 and Map 3 can be viewed by clicking on each map number PUBLISHER'S NOTE Report 74-2, Limestone Resources of Newfoundland and Labrador by John R. DeGrace, being the only comprehensive study of the limestone resources of the province to date, is being reissued to provide the nec- essary background information to facilitate limestone exploration activities in the province. However, the format of the reissue has been changed from the original to conform to the format presently used by the Geological Survey. The report is being reprinted in its entirety without any updating or corrections whatso- ever; and is being made available only digitally, including on the web. Readers should be aware that later reviews of the geology of the areas covered in Report 74-2 are those by Hibbard (1983), King (1988), Knight and James (1988), Smyth and Schillereff (1982), Stouge (1983a,b), and Knight (1983). Details concerning the economic potential of the limestone resources themselves, also have been updated in the interim. The Newfoundland Department of Mines and Energy began a reassess- ment of Newfoundland marble resources in 1985, the objective of which was to determine their industrial potential as filler and dimension stone. Significant reassessments of some of the old deposits were made and new deposits of high-purity, white marble were delineated by diamond drilling.

A second edition was printed in 2002 with a few minor changes. Since that printing, Wichita property owners have expressed a growing interest in listing their properties in the Register of Historic Kansas Places (RHKP) and the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and many have been added. Also, a commercial area, the Warehouse and Jobbers District, was listed in 2003 and Wichita’s four historic districts were listed in the RHKP and NRHP in 2004. In this latest edition additional research was conduct- ed to ensure accuracy. The brochure is organized alphabetically by the name of the structure. The entries are also numbered to correspond with locations on the map found at the front of the brochure. An online publication of the Discover Historic Wichita brochure is updated as properties and/or his- toric districts are added to Wichita’s inventory of list- ed properties. The current version is on the Historic Preservation Office website at http://www.wichita. gov/Residents/History/. Biographical notes of relevant architects have been added to this brochure. Wichita’s periods of economic boom and bust brought these professionals to town to take advantage of building surges.

La Spina 1, * 1 Departamento de Arquitectura y Tecnología de la Edificación, Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena - [email protected] Commission II - WG II/8 KEY WORDS: Stovewood Construction, Sod Houses, Cobblestone Structures, Vernacular architecture, Canada, USA ABSTRACT: Generally, in the traditional architecture of Canada and the United States, wood has been used as the main and almost exclusive material for the construction of the buildings of early settlers as it was abundant in the area. Thus, log cabins or wooden frame houses and cottages have become the chief representatives of traditional Canadian and North American architecture. However, wood was expensive or not always at hand in some parts of both countries, so that other materials such as earth, stone, and lime or gypsum were used by the new settlers to build the first constructions. Consequently, different constructive techniques associated with these materials are found in their traditional architecture, some even imported from Europe, with specific links to the individual places of origin of those who built the buildings. This paper aims to provide an initial overview and classification of the use of other materials and other constructive techniques which are also characteristic of a part of traditional architecture common to both Canada and the North of the United States: It also offers an exploration of different specific individual examples including stovewood constructions, sod houses (soddies), and cobblestone structures.
