  • FAUNAL FINDINGS at the CONSTANCE BAY SITE NO. 1 (Biga-2)
    Savage: FAUNAL FINDINGS 25 FAUNAL FINDINGS AT THE CONSTANCE BAY SITE NO. 1 (BiGa-2) HOWARD SAVAGE ABSTRACT Faunal material, excavated by Mr. Gordon Watson at the Constance Bay Site No. 1 (BiGa-2) and radiocarbon dated at 2,440 ± 75 B.P., included elements from six mammal species, as well as turtle and fish species, many of which were calcined. The small size of the beaver and black bear findings was noted. Cavitation of the compact bone of most of the cortex specimens from large mammal species was demonstrated by direct examination and radiologically, and its nature investigated by X-ray diffraction and spectography, and microscopic examination and selective staining of ground thin sections. A suggested mode of production of the cavitation is a destructive effect of soil factors on the bone inner portion and its subsequent leaching out, with a resultant shell of cortex only remaining. This effect does not appear to have occurred in other archaeological sites in Ontario. The very interesting faunal material from the Constance Bay Site No. 1 (BiGa-2) was excavated by Mr. Gordon Watson during the summers of 1970 and 1971 at Constance Bay in one of the lakes of the Ottawa River, about 30 miles west of Ottawa. Its ceramic and lithic findings have indicated its occupation during the Woodland Period of Ontario prehistory, as has also a radiocarbon dating of a charcoal sample from the site as 2,440 ± 75 B.P. (Watson, 1972). The faunal findings from this site consisted of approximately 3,010 specimens, in which 412 mammalian, 49 turtle and 7 fish elements were recognized (Appendix A).

    FROM FORAGING TO FARMING: CHANGING DIET-BREADTH AND THE MIDDLE TO LATE WOODLAND TRANSITION IN SOUTHCENTRAL ONTARIO (CA. 1450–650 BP) A Thesis Submitted to the Committee of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Daniel Worby, 2018 Anthropology M.A. Graduate Program May 2018 ABSTRACT From Foraging to Farming: Changing Diet-Breadth and the Middle to Late Woodland Transition in Southcentral Ontario (ca. 1450–650 B.P.) Daniel Worby This study examines foraging strategies during the Middle Woodland Period’s Sandbanks Phase (A.D. 700–1000) on Boyd Island, Pigeon Lake, Ontario. The faunal remains analyzed in this study were recovered from a site associated with the procurement of aquatic and terrestrial taxa. Detailed taphonomic analyses have revealed that the Boyd Island faunal remains were affected by weathering and human transport decisions. White-tailed deer was the most frequently acquired prey at Boyd Island, followed by black bear. Using the central place forager prey choice model as a framework, the analysis of diet breadth and carcass transport patterns suggests that most animal resources were acquired from both aquatic and terrestrial habitats, at moderate distances from the site. Incomplete carcasses of large game appear to have been transported away from the site, where they were subsequently processed for provisioning or consumption. Comparisons with other Sandbanks faunal assemblages and those dating to later periods indicate significant differences in terms of taxonomic composition, while continuing to emphasize the use of fish.
