Urrea Master of Arts University of Oregon History Department September 2019 Title: “Our People Scattered:” Violence, Captivity, and Colonialism on the Northwest Coast, 1774-1846” This thesis interrogates the practice, economy, and sociopolitics of slavery and captivity among Indigenous peoples and Euro-American colonizers on the Northwest Coast of North America from 1774-1846. Through the use of secondary and primary source materials, including the private journals of fur traders, oral histories, and anthropological analyses, this project has found that with the advent of the maritime fur trade and its subsequent evolution into a land-based fur trading economy, prolonged interactions between Euro-American agents and Indigenous peoples fundamentally altered the economy and practice of Native slavery on the Northwest Coast.

Yet its history as a public park goes back even further to its designation by Presi- dent Benjamin Harrison in 1890. The government's foresight in preserving the historic site is manifest to anyone visiting this gem of green at the mouth of Indian River where a battle was fought and a land lost. The Tlingit Indians have always called this land home. In a pitched battle in 1804 they withdrew from the Sitka area, leaving it to the Russian fur-traders, who founded their New Archangel on the nearby point, now downtown Sitka. Later, the Tlingit returned to Sitka after agreements tacit and verbal, living some- what in harmony with the intruders, with occasional outbursts.

  • Melbourne Rare Book Fair 2019: the Highlights Including Russian Australiana & Avant-Garde Classics
    Melbourne Rare Book Fair 2019: The Highlights Including Russian Australiana & Avant-Garde Classics BOOKVICA 1 F O R E W O R D Dear all, We are glad to present to you the catalogue for the Melbourne fair - fair we wanted to participate in for a long time. The preface is that the international bookselling career of Bookvica founder, Pavel Chepyzhov, has started in Australia 8 years ago, with the ILAB internship done with the Cornstalk Bookshop and Hordern House. Now, we are coming back to show the work that has been done in these last years. The selection that we bring to Melbourne is as diverse and representative of our work as possible: from the illuminated gems of the 17th century in the shape of special coloured copy of Paterik Pecherskiy (1661) and the 13-meter long Armenian prayer scroll manuscript, to the classical Rodchenko and Lebedev’s works in book avant-garde. The special section is dedicated to what we have called Russian Australiana. Here one can find books that show connection between two countries which existed steadily through the last 200 years, especially if you include the numerous Russian travels in the Pacific and the influence of Russian culture on the Pacific Rim. We are glad to bring to Melbourne the signed copy of the travel account of one of the greatest Russian circumnavigators, Yuri Lisiansky, as well as the Russian translation of the James Cook’s biography by Kippis (1790), to underline the common ground. The Chinese section offers a glimpse into the Russian travel exploration of China, to the imprints of the exiled Russians in China in the 1920s-1930s, while in USSR at the same time the albums and books praising Mao were printed.

ABSTRACT In 2005, SITK invited the National Park Service’s (NPS) Midwest Archeological Center (MWAC) to conduct a Systemwide Archeological Inventory Program (SAIP) parkwide inventory at the park’s Fort Site Unit. This unit incorporates 57 acres of rainforest and nearly 55 acres of wetlands, Indian River channel, and tidal flats. The SAIP’s (and the SITK project’s) goals are to conduct systematic, scientific research to locate, evaluate, and document archeological resources on National Park system lands. Its objectives are to: 1) determine the nature and extent of archeological resources in park areas; 2) record and evaluate those resources in the Archeological Sites Management Information System (ASMIS) database; 3) include nominating eligible properties for listing in the National Register of Historic Places; and 4) recommend appropriate strategies for conserving, protecting, preserving in situ, managing, and interpreting those resources. Four years of inventory were projected to complete the inventory. The first year, 2005, was scheduled for metal detecting, geophysical, and hand-excavated shovel testing surveys.
