May 4, 1786. [Excerpts] Map of the Russian Far East and Russian America, 1844 . With the exception of twelve persons who [Karta Ledovitago moria i Vostochnago okeana] are going to the Port of Okhotsk, there are 113 Russians on the island of Kytkak [Kodiak]. When the Tri Sviatitelia [Three Saints] arrives from Okhotsk, the crews should be sent to Kinai and to Shugach. Add as many of the local pacified natives as possible to strengthen the Russians. In this manner we can move faster along the shore of the American mainland to the south toward California. With the strengthening of the Russian companies in this land, try by giving them all possible favors to bring into subjection to the Russian Imperial Throne the Kykhtat, Aliaksa, Kinai and Shugach people. Always take an accurate count of the population, both men and women, detail, Kodiak Island according to clans. When the above mentioned natives are subjugated, every one of them must be told that people who are loyal and reliable will prosper under the rule of our Empress, but that all rebels will be totally exterminated by Her strong hand. The purpose of our institutions, whose aim is to bring good to all people, should be made known to them.

  • 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.

  • A Brief Look at the History and Culture of Woody Island, Alaska
    A Brief Look At The History April 25 and Culture of Woody Island, 2010 Alaska This document is intended to be a brief lesson on the prehistory and history of Woody Island and the Kodiak Archipelago. It is also intended to be used as a learning resource for fifth graders who By Gordon Pullar Jr. visit Woody Island every spring. Introduction Woody Island is a peaceful place with a lush green landscape and an abundance of wild flowers. While standing on the beach on a summer day a nice ocean breeze can be felt and the smell of salt water is in the air. The island is covered by a dense spruce forest with a forest floor covered in thick soft moss. Woody Island is place where one can escape civilization and enjoy the wilderness while being only a 15 minute boat ride from Kodiak. While experiencing Woody Island today it may be hard for one to believe that it was once a bustling community, even larger in population than the City of Kodiak. The Kodiak Archipelago is made up of 25 islands, the largest being Kodiak Island. Kodiak Island is separated from mainland Alaska by the Shelikof Strait. Kodiak Island is approximately 100 miles long and 60 miles wide and is the second largest island in the United States behind the “big” island of Hawaii. The city of Kodiak is the largest community on the island with a total population of about 6,000 (City Data 2008), and the entire Kodiak Island Borough population is about 13,500 people (Census estimate 2009).

  • Chapter 4 Three Villages Under the Russian-American Company
    Chapter 4 Three Villages Under the Russian-American Company n the years following Cook’s voyage, people living in Makushin, Kashega, and Biorka found their options reduced as trade in I Russian America was soon dominated by the activities of Grigorii I. Shelikhov, a man with voracious interest in the wealth of the territory and a vision of permanent settlements.1 In 1781 he and two other merchants had formed a company that gradually absorbed and drove out smaller competitors while creating powerful allies in Russia. In 1790 he hired the legendary Alexander Baranov, who, forced to the wall by a series of business failures, reluctantly agreed to Shelikhov’s persistent overtures. Baranov sailed from Okhotsk on the Three Saints for the settlement Shelikhov had founded on Kodiak in 1784. Approaching Unalaska Island, the vessel Grigorii I. Shelikhov anchored in Kashega Bay to replenish its water supply. An early October http://en.wikipedia. storm blew in, however, and cornered the vessel, placing it in imminent org/wiki/Grigory_ Shelekhov#mediaviewer/ danger. The crew managed to unload a portion of the cargo during low File:Grigory_Shelikov.jpg tide before the vessel capsized during the night of October 6, stranding everyone for the winter. Baranov’s account of Unalaska in general and Kashega in particular portrayed a demoralized and innervated population. Along with other negative pronouncements, Baranov wrote: —“in general they are all lazy and untidy” —“their yurts are poor and cold” —“they have no fires…except in their oil lamps” —they seldom cook anything —they rarely wear shoes —“they observe no religious laws” —“they know nothing of their origin” —they rarely share food with each other 2 —“where there are no Russians…they make no effort at all” CHAPTER 4: Three villaGES under THE RUSSIAN-American CHAPTER Compan TITLEY 45 His account was strikingly different from those made by Cook’s expedition.

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.

Stratman Britt Lindsay* I. INTRODUCTION Alaska is a region of abundant natural resources and vast lands. Un- fortunately, modem legal disputes continue to originate from historic rival claims to this bounty. Alaskan Natives have long struggled to maintain some semblance of control over their ancient lands in the midst of settle- ment by competing alien cultures. After Alaskan statehood, interest in the region resulted in Congress adopting the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA). However, in adopting ANCSA Congress simply added fuel to the fire causing additional problems in the wake of questionable solu- tions to the Native land claims. ANCSA instituted an unfamiliar corporate system on the Alaskan Natives. The creation of village and regional corporations imposed artifi- cial property divisions and adversarial relationships among Native groups. Thus, the opportunity arose for non-natives to exploit tensions between opposing tribal entities. Furthermore, ANCSA fabricated disruption where it did not exist before, namely among competing Native organizations.

Kittlitz’s Murrelet Brachyramphus brevirostris in the Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska. Marine Ornithology 36: 59–66. The Kittlitz’s Murrelet Brachyramphus brevirostris is a poorly known alcid of the Bering Sea region. It is one of the rarest breeding seabirds in the North Pacific and is listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List. It has a highly restricted breeding range, with a patchy distribution in Alaska and the Russian Far East. In this paper, we highlight its use of the Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska—an area that has received little research or monitoring attention as breeding or wintering habitat for this species. Based on observational data from the last 30+ years, we conclude that Kittlitz’s Murrelets are present year round in the area and we present maps of their distribution around the archipelago. We include a description of the location and habitat characteristics of the first confirmed case of Kittlitz’s Murrelet breeding on Kodiak Island and map potential nesting habitat across the archipelago. Given the conservation status and increasingly high profile of this species, we encourage increased and focused management attention on Kittlitz’s Murrelets in this location.
