Late Pleistocene /Early Holocene Site Structure In
LATE PLEISTOCENE /EARLY HOLOCENE SITE STRUCTURE IN BERINGIA : A CASE STUDY FROM THE BROKEN MAMMOTH SITE , INTERIOR ALASKA Kathryn E. Krasinski Department of Anthropology, University of Nevada, 1664 North Virginia Street MS 0096, Reno, NV 89557-0096; [email protected] David R. Yesner Department of Anthropology, University of Alaska Anchorage ABSTRACT Intrasite spatial analysis and the characterization of site structure at archaeological sites consider the relationship between archaeological material to derive connections between economic and social be- havior through the prehistoric use of space. This paper examines the spatial distribution of hearth fea- tures, débitage, and faunal remains in the late Pleistocene and early Holocene cultural components of the Broken Mammoth site, near Big Delta in interior Alaska. K-means analysis was used to reconstruct activity areas including lithic workshops, meal preparation areas, and refuse zones. Site organization suggests Broken Mammoth was a semipermanent base camp for early colonists of eastern Beringia. keywords: spatial analysis in archaeology, prehistoric activity areas, K-means cluster analysis, Beringia, Paleoindian archaeology, Broken Mammoth Site INTRODUCTION Most research on late Pleistocene and early Holocene sites merous hearth features in well-stratified contexts, relative in eastern Beringia has focused efforts on technological lack of postdepositional taphonomic disturbance, and fau- connections to Siberia and Northeast Asia (Goebel et nal preservation (Yesner et al. 1992). This paper addresses al. 1991; Hoffecker et al. 1993; West 1996; Yi and Clark the spatial structure of lithic and faunal patterns in the 1985). Studies of intrasite artifact distributions and site two oldest components of the Broken Mammoth site, cul- structure have seen much less research emphasis, but tural zones 3 and 4, dated between 12,000 and 9,300 14C a few notable exceptions exist (Higgs 1992; Hoffecker yrs bp. -

Language Documentation & Conservation Special Publication No. 16 (2019) Methodological Tools for Linguistic Description and Typology ed. by Aimée Lahaussois and Marine Vuillermet, pp. 125-154 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc http://hdl.handle.net/10125/24860 7 Video elicitation of negative directives in Alaskan Dene languages: Reflections on methodology Olga Lovick First Nations University of Canada Siri G. Tuttle University of Alaska Fairbanks In this paper, we describe the use of video stimuli for the targeted elicitation of negative directives in Denaakk’e (Koyukon) and Nee’andeegn’ (Upper Tanana), two severely endangered Alaskan Dene languages. Negative directives are extremely rare in our previously collected data, yet they exhibit a great variety of forms. Forms further seem to depend on several factors, particularly on whether the prohibited act violates social norms known as hʉtlaanee/įįjih. To better understand the variety of on-record and off-record forms, we created video clips showing activities violating hʉtlaanee/įįjih and activities that are merely foolish or mildly dangerous. After view- ing the clips, our consultants were asked to advise the actors as if they were their grandchildren. Their responses were discussed at length with the speakers. The speakers greatly enjoyed this task and produced a great variety of on-record and off- record responses including some unusual linguistic structures. In both languages, off- record expressions were preferred over direct ones, particularly in situations where hʉtlaanee/įįjih was involved. We also identified several conventionalized off-record strategies. The emphasis on hʉtlaanee/įįjih made the task interesting and relevant for speakers. While our stimuli are designed for work with Alaskan Dene, the method can be adapted for cultural contexts around the world. -

Alaska Native
To conduct a simple search of the many GENERAL records of Alaska’ Native People in the National Archives Online Catalog use the search term Alaska Native. To search specific areas or villages see indexes and information below. Alaska Native Villages by Name A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Alaska is home to 229 federally recognized Alaska Native Villages located across a wide geographic area, whose records are as diverse as the people themselves. Customs, culture, artwork, and native language often differ dramatically from one community to another. Some are nestled within large communities while others are small and remote. Some are urbanized while others practice subsistence living. Still, there are fundamental relationships that have endured for thousands of years. One approach to understanding links between Alaska Native communities is to group them by language. This helps the student or researcher to locate related communities in a way not possible by other means. It also helps to define geographic areas in the huge expanse that is Alaska.

Policy Recommendations for Tlingit Language Revitalization Efforts
Indigenous Tongues: Policy Recommendations for Tlingit Language Revitalization Efforts A Policy Paper for the National Indian Health Board Authored by: Keixe Yaxti/Maka Monture Of the Yakutat Tlingit Tribe of Alaska & Six Nations Mohawk of Canada Image 1: “Dig your paddle Deep” by Maka Monture Contents Introduction 2 Background on Tlingit Language 2 Health in Indigenous Languages 2 How Language Efforts Can be Developed 3 Where The State is Now 3 Closing Statement 4 References 4 Appendix I: Supporting Document: Tlingit Human Diagram 5 Appendix II: Supporting Document: Yakutat Tlingit Tribe Resolution 6 Appendix III: Supporting Document: House Concurrent Resolution 19 8 1 Introduction There is a dire need for native language education for the preservation of the Southeastern Alaskan Tlingit language, and Alaskan Tlingit Tribes must prioritize language restoration as the a priority of the tribe for the purpose of revitalizing and perpetuating the aboriginal language of their ancestors. According to the Alaska Native Language Preservation and Advisory Council, not only are a majority of the 20 recognized Alaska Native languages in danger of being lost at the end of this century, direct action is needed at tribal levels in Alaska. The following policy paper states why Alaskan Tlingit Tribes and The Central Council of the Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska, a tribal government representing over 30,000 Tlingit and Haida Indians worldwide and a sovereign entity that has a government to government relationship with the United States, must take actions to declare a state of emergency for the Tlingit Language and allocate resources for saving the Tlingit language through education programs. -

1. Description 1.1 Name of society, language, and language family: Ahtna, Na Dene, Athapaskan 1.2 ISO code (3 letter code from ethnologue.com): ath 1.3 Location (latitude/longitude): 61.312452,-142.470703 1.4 Brief history: Russians first made contact with the Ahtna in 1783. They attempted to set up Copper fort, near Taral, in Ahtna territory, but the Ahtna were hostile towards them, massacring a group of explorers led by Ruff Serebrennikov in 1848, which led to the closing of the fort. When the fort was reopened for a short while, only a little trade between the Ahtna and the Russians occurred. Smallpox killed many Ahtna from 1837-1839. After the US purchased Alaska the Ahtna traded directly with the Alaska Commercial Company at Nuchek and indirectly with other posts in the Yukon. The first major encounter with whites happened at the beginning of the 20th century when word of gold in the area brought masses of people north. This introduced luxuries and tuberculosis to the Ahtna People. By 1930, all Ahtna had been baptized into the Russian Orthodox religion. (De Laguna, Frederica & McClellan, Catherine) 1.5 Influence of missionaries/schools/governments/powerful neighbors: Contact with whites led to epidemics that devastated the Ahtna population. By the mid- 20th century, all Ahtna had been converted or baptized into the Russian Orthodox faith. (De Laguna, Frederica & McClellan, Catherine) 1.6 Ecology The climate of the Copper River valley where the Ahtna lived is transitional between maritime and continental. Snow covered the inhabited area from mid-November through mid-April. -
Strategies of Language Revitalization in Alignment with Native Pedagogical Forms: Examples from Ahtna Alaska
Strategies of Language Revitalization in Alignment with Native Pedagogical Forms: Examples from Ahtna Alaska Greg Holt Swarthmore College 2004 Language and the sacred are indivisible. The earth and all its appearances and expressions exist in names and stories and prayers and spells. -N. Scott Momaday (1995) “Sacred Places” in Aboriginal Voices 2 (1):29 0.0 Introduction Michael Krauss, director of the Alaska Native Languages Center (ANLC) for thirty years, has compiled data to predict that 90% of the world’s 6,000- 7,000 languages will be moribund or dead in next 100 years (Krauss, 1992; 7).* This erosion of global cultural diversity is occurring through the spread of closed or restricted political, economic, and religious institutions which reward homogenization and subtractive cultural assimilation.1 This model of integration does not allow for the full participation of multiple cultures in one society but rather requires the complete eradication of non- majority cultures. Using language shift as a measure, it is clear that current rates of cultural assimilation far outstrip any seen before in human history. In Alaska, groups and individuals are working against this trend, but until recently programs have been few. In the bilingual education programs that do exist, English speaking Native Alaskan children often learn kinship terms, color names, and seasonal * First I would like to thank all the people in Alaska who welcomed me and helped me develop these ideas, especially Siri Tuttle. Also, I thank my professors and readers at Swarthmore College for all they’ve taught me, David Harrison and Ted Fernald.
