  • Humans and Animals in the Norse North Atlantic
    Humans and Animals in the Norse North Atlantic Lara M. Hogg This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. School of History, Archaeology and Religion. Cardiff University. 2015 SUMMARY It is a well-established fact that all human societies have coexisted with and are dependent upon animals and it is increasingly recognized that the study of human-animal relationships provides vital insights into past human societies. Still this is yet to be widely embraced in archaeology. This thesis has examined human-animal interdependencies to explore the social identities and structure of society in the Norse North Atlantic. Benefitting from recent research advances in animal studies and the ever increasing volume of archaeological reports from Norse period archaeological excavations the North Atlantic this thesis was able to develop previous scholarship and define directions for future research. The thesis explored the role of animals in human society in the North Atlantic to reveal the complex Norse societies that existed. It revealed through human interdependencies with animals that these societies were far from homogeneous and had their own distinct identities with the individual islands as well as across the North Atlantic. The thesis achieved this by examining several important discrete but interlinked themes. These themes were divided into four chapters that focused on the individual aspects. This included an examination of previous North Atlantic Viking Age scholarship, consideration of human construction and perception of landscape through archaeological excavations, investigation of the role of domestic animals in human social activities, and an exploration of the role of domesticated animals in beliefs.

    Compendium of research undertaken in Nunavut 2008 Nunavut Research Institute FORWARD 1 The Nunavut Research Institute was created in 1995 when the Science Institute of the NWT was divided into eastern and western operations. In the eastern arctic, the re-named institute was amalgamated with the Nunavut Arctic College. The Nunavut Research Institute focuses on supporting scientific research and the development of technology across a broad spectrum of issues and concerns. The Institute’s interpretation of research is broad, incorporating Inuit Qaujimanituqangit, social sciences, and natural sciences. The following mission statement guides the activities and services provided by the Institute: The mission of the Nunavut Research Institute is to provide leadership in the development, facilitation and promotion of Inuit Qaujimanituqangit, science, research and technology as a resource for the well being of the people of Nunavut. Institute services are guided by the core values of Nunavut Arctic College – strong communities, cultural appropriateness, partnerships, quality, access, responsiveness and life-long research, which is linked to community needs, and making greater use of the Inuit Qaujimanituqangit in research projects. This compendium of research has been produced as part of the Institute’s effort to communicate information about research projects recently undertaken in Nunavut under the authority of the Nunavut Scientists Act.

    THE TIES THAT BIND Fur-Fibre Cordage and Associated Material from Dorset Palaeo-Eskimo Sites in Eastern Canada Penelope Walton Rogers and Philip Greaves Pangur Press York 2018 Published by Pangur Press, York, UK 30 September 2018 Copyright the authors The authors Penelope Walton Rogers, The Anglo-Saxon Laboratory, York, UK, www.aslab.co.uk, ORCID 0000-0002-7845-7524 Philip Greaves, Microtex, Otley, West Yorkshire, UK, www.microtex-analysis.com Acknowledgements The analytical study which forms the subject of this report was undertaken as part of the Helluland Archaeological Project, project director Dr Patricia Sutherland. It was funded by International Polar Year grant SR1-MD-142, ‘Inuit history: climatic change and historical connections in Arctic Canada AD 1000- 1900’ (PI Patricia Sutherland) and by the Canadian Museum of Civilization. Thanks are due to Dr Sutherland for commissioning the study and for providing information concerning the finds, the sites and the background to the project. The cordage from Avayalik Island is held at The Rooms, St John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador. All other material described in this report is currently housed at the Canadian Museum of History (formerly the Canadian Museum of Civilization), Gatineau, Quebec, where a proportion of the holding is under the jurisdiction of the Government of Nunavut. We are grateful to the staff at both museums for facilitating our research. All Pangur Press publications are peer-reviewed.
