Although the photographs are artfully crafted and technically superior, there is the question of what an accretion of so many sublime landscape images of the North accomplishes in terms of perceptions of place, community and culture? It is true that creating awe-inspiring photographs that promote an appreciation for polar-regions is legitimate work.

They are both distinct and both pastoral farming cultures located on the climatic edges of viable agriculture, depending on a combination of farming, pastoralism and marine mammal hunting. • It is the earliest introduction of farming to the Arctic. • Source: UNESCO, Kujataa Greenland: Norse and Inuit Farming at the Edge of the Ice Cap (2017), https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1536/ Threats to the Kujataa UNESCO World Heritage Site 2 The site Source: UNESCO World Heritage Centre Threats to the Kujataa UNESCO World Heritage Site 3 The site Kujataa Greenland: Norse and Inuit Farming at the Edge of the Ice Cap.

  • Ilulissat Icefjord
    World Heritage Scanned Nomination File Name: 1149.pdf UNESCO Region: EUROPE AND NORTH AMERICA __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Ilulissat Icefjord DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 7th July 2004 STATE PARTY: DENMARK CRITERIA: N (i) (iii) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 28th Session of the World Heritage Committee Criterion (i): The Ilulissat Icefjord is an outstanding example of a stage in the Earth’s history: the last ice age of the Quaternary Period. The ice-stream is one of the fastest (19m per day) and most active in the world. Its annual calving of over 35 cu. km of ice accounts for 10% of the production of all Greenland calf ice, more than any other glacier outside Antarctica. The glacier has been the object of scientific attention for 250 years and, along with its relative ease of accessibility, has significantly added to the understanding of ice-cap glaciology, climate change and related geomorphic processes. Criterion (iii): The combination of a huge ice sheet and a fast moving glacial ice-stream calving into a fjord covered by icebergs is a phenomenon only seen in Greenland and Antarctica. Ilulissat offers both scientists and visitors easy access for close view of the calving glacier front as it cascades down from the ice sheet and into the ice-choked fjord. The wild and highly scenic combination of rock, ice and sea, along with the dramatic sounds produced by the moving ice, combine to present a memorable natural spectacle. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS Located on the west coast of Greenland, 250-km north of the Arctic Circle, Greenland’s Ilulissat Icefjord (40,240-ha) is the sea mouth of Sermeq Kujalleq, one of the few glaciers through which the Greenland ice cap reaches the sea.

    Cod Fish, Walrus, and Chieftains: Economic Intensification in the Norse N Atlantic Sophia Perdikaris Dept of Archaeology & Anthropology Brooklyn College CUNY Thomas H. McGovern Dept of Anthropology Hunter College CUNY Both: CUNY Northern Science and Education Center Paper submitted to T. Thurston et al (eds ) New Perspectives on Intensification , Plenum Press March 2003 ABSTRACT: During the Viking Age (ca AD 800-1100) Scandinavian colonists settled the islands of the western North Atlantic, introducing agriculture and chiefly society to Iceland and Greenland. Zooarchaeological evidence indicates that these two westernmost colonies shared many common characteristics, but diverged economically soon after initial settlement. The Icelanders drew upon an Iron Age heritage to intensify a staple goods economy based increasingly upon preserved cod-family fish that ultimately linked them closely to the expanding proto-capitalist economies of later medieval Europe. Greenlanders instead intensified the hunting of walrus to produce the prestige goods component of the Viking Age chiefly economy. As social and environmental change intensified in the later Middle Ages, Greenland’s economy failed and the colony became extinct while Icelanders survived. New zooarchaeological approaches to the study of pre-state chiefly economics are transforming our understanding of the history of this key region. KEYWORDS : VIKINGS, North Atlantic, ECONOMY, FISHING, SEA MAMMALS, INTENSIFICATION Acknowledgements: We would like to thank the many scholars who have so kindly provided practical assistance, data, and good advice in both the field and laboratory on both sides of the Atlantic. We are particularly indebted to the colleagues of the North Atlantic Biocultural Organization (NABO) research cooperative, whose enthusiastic collaboration has been vital to the research reported here.

  • Early Colonisation of Disko
    - The Arctic Region of Disko - Early Colonisation of Disko by Peter Chapman Mountain Environment Early Colonisation of Disko The Arctic Region of Disko he first people to venture into the arctic were the Palaeo-Eskimo. Their movement into the arctic, which originated from the Bering Strait area between Siberia and Alaska, resulted in tact with them T perfecting methods for hunting marine animals throughout the year in the arctic conditions. This group of early Palaeo-Eskimos are known internationally as the Arctic Small Tool tradition (ASTt). Common to them are the small stone-tipped implements they used to survive. These Stone Age people spread along the northern coast of Alaska and Canada to Greenland in less than 100 years - an amazing speed considering the few numbers of people and the enormous distances involved. Their settlements where located close to their hunting grounds, either right on the coast by the sea ice, or along inlets from where they hunted land mammals such as reindeer (caribou) and muskoxen. Today, traces of these settlements are found on fossil terraces a little inland and often 30 to 40 metres above sea level due to continuing post glacial uplift of the land and changes in sea level since the time of inhabitation. The archaeologist Robert McGhee wrote that these people migrated into “the coldest, darkest and most barren regions ever inhabited by man”. Indeed, they were very bold to do so both in terms of coping with the harshness of the climate but also because of the psychological nature of their endeavours. The early Palaeo-Eskimo people who populated the arctic archipelago of Canada are called the Pre-Dorset Culture and two cultures populated areas of Greenland’s coast for the first time around 2400 BC.
