Callum Thomson Newfoundland Museum FIHD #ESEAEE(B Note: The summary of fieldwork dras upon a preliminary compilation by Gerald Penney during his temporary assignment as Curator of Archaeology at the New- f oundland Museum (Penney 1987) . Field research in Newfoundland and Labrador continued the trerd toward increasing activity in historic archaeology and emiromntal impact assess- ments noted over the past few years. Of the twenty-four archaeological re- search permits issued in 1986 to fourteen researchers sixteen were for specific research projects -- nine concentrating on the historic period -- while eight were to assess potential development impacts on historic resources. Additionally, Parks Canada sponsored fieldwork at the Port au Choix National Historic Site. In Labrador , Gerald Penney assessed the impact by the Deparbnent of Na- tional Defence on historic resources of the construction of two long range radar facilities at Saglek and Cartwright. A survey of the Cartwright project area failed to locate any sites. A brief excursion outside the study area lo- cated a large stone house relating to Major George Cartwright's st* on the south Labrador coast (1770-86). Six prehistoric sites were inspected near the project area at Saglek and were judged not to require any mitigation. A one-day survey by Callurn Thomon and Penney of the area between Cape Uivak and White Point, south of the Saglek developnent, recorded 18 new sites. Maritime Archaic longhouses, other boulder features and/or surface lithics were found at ten sites, Middle Dorset material at two, and Neo-Eskim remains at thirteen. A coastal survey by William Fitzhugh between Goose Bay and Cartwright lo- cated new and revisited formerly-recorded Groswater, Intermediate Indian, Middle Dorset and Neo-Eskimo sites on the mainland and offshore islands. Stephen Loring spent several weeks excavating a Late Point Revenge site at Tikkoatokak Bay near Nain to clarify the relationship between the late prehis- toric Point Revenge complexr its antecedents, and the succeeding Innu groups of the historical record. In addition, Loring sought to understand the mechanisms of maintenance of social boundaries and ethnic identities among prehistoric and historic Indian groups in Labrador. A survey at Seal Lake, northwest of Goose Bay, by Fitzhugh, Moira McCaffrey, and Loring resulted in the location of historic Naskapi camps and several large Innu winter camps but disappointingly little evidence of prehis- toric activity. Efforts failed to delineate the source of Seal Lake cherts, abundant at coastal sites during the prehistoric period. It is now suspected that the source locations must lie east of Seal Lake. McCaffrey surveyed three lakes in Western Labrador for lithic sources and located five sites on Menihek Lake with raw material of the Wishart chert formation. McCaffrey includes in her report a well-deserved chastisement of Thmon and Penney for their (separate) generalizations on the paucity of prehistoric remains in western Labrador. A survey of Petitsikapau Lake by McCaffrey included a visit to the site of Fort Nascopie, a Hudson's Bay Com- pany post (1830-60). Kevin McAleese investigated the vernacular architecture of a late 18th century fishing/sealing/fur trapping settlement at Stage Cove, 80 km northeast of Red Bay. George Cartwright's Journal vaguely describes his construction of a dwelling and store house, servants1 quarters and various shore facilities. McAleese's excavations revealed seven features representing these structural remains and 1000 artifacts including fragments of bottle, lantern and beverage glass, ceramics, various iron and copper items and such organic materials as leather, feathers and a small faunal sample. James Tuck's team from Memorial University of Newfoundland , aided by the Canadian Conservation Institute , continued excavations at the Basque whaling site at Red Bay. On Organ's Island a large, but little used, tqnmrks of six fireboxes was excavated, while on Saddle Island a second tryworks was pr- tially exposed. The rendering ovens hme not been exposed but post molds of a 30 by 32 foot structure =re established. Near this structure are a number of Recent Indian hearths containing Little Passage and Point Revenge style projectile points as well as roof tiles, nails, cut baleen and Europan leather. During the excavation of a Middle Dorset site, near the whalers' cemetery, several additional 16th century graves were encountered. An unusually deep burial produced the remains of an individual upon whose chest rested a large wooden cross, the first item of grave goods in more than 60 burials excavated to date (see cover illustration). Reginald Auger and Marianne Stopp conducted a survey initiated by the Historic Resources Division with partial D.R.I.E. funding to assess site at- trition and the potential for further research, protection and tourism developnent in southern Labrador. Their team surveyed the north shore of the Strait of Belle Isle from the Quebec/Labrador border to Cape Charles. Seventy-five new sites were located. Site distribution ranges frm Maritin-e Archaic through early and late Palaeo-Eskimo, Recent Prehistoric Indian, Labrador Inuit, Basque, and other European. A rectangular, sod block Inuit house of the late 18th century was excavated on Seal Islands near Henley Harbour, where 11 other Inuit sites were discoverd in close proximity to European shore stations. Robert McGhee's report on a 1985 survey in southern Labrador, inadver- tently omitted by the editors from the 1985 Annual Report, is included this year, McGhee revisited the L'Anse Amour site, noting new boulder structures similar to longhouses and, .perhaps, a "roadway" like those reported by other investigators in Maritime Archaic sites in central and northern Labrador. On the Island, Priscilla Renouf continued her Parks Canada-sponsored ex- cavations at Phillips Garden, Port au Choix; her surveys resulted in the dis- covery of sixteen previously undiscovered sites. The Point Riche site with some thirteen house depressions is about one third the size of Phillips Garden. Radiocarbon dates from Point Riche (2000-1200 BPI are contemporaneous with Phillips Garden and there is similar material culture. At Phillips Gar- den East, Brenda Kennett excavated a Gromter site which yielded a large faunal sample and three types of harpoon heads. This site, dating to ca 2600 BPI shows typological similarities to the Early Dorset sites of Labrador and Independence I1 sites of the Arctic,

  • Southern Extension to the Breeding Range of the Gyrfalcon, Falco Rusticolus, in Eastern North America S
    ARCTIC VOL. 48, NO. 1 (MARCH 1995) P. 94–95 Southern Extension to the Breeding Range of the Gyrfalcon, Falco rusticolus, in Eastern North America S. BRODEUR,1 F. MORNEAU,1 R. DÉCARIE,1 J.-L. DESGRANGES2 and J. NEGRO3 (Received 26 October 1994; accepted in revised form 8 December 1994) ABSTRACT. We report the observation of four gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) nests and several adults south of the previously recognized southern limit of the species’ breeding distribution in eastern North America. Our southernmost observation extends the known breeding range approximately 400 km to the south. The northern forest tundra biome could delineate the southern limit to the breeding range of the gyrfalcon. Key words: gyrfalcon, Falco rusticolus, nesting, distribution, Hudson Bay, Quebec. RÉSUMÉ. Nous rapportons la découverte de quatre nids de faucon gerfaut et la mention de quelques adultes au sud de la limite connue de l’aire de reproduction de l’espèce dans l’est de l’Amérique du Nord. Notre observation la plus méridionale étend l’aire de répartition quelques 400 km plus au sud. Les limites sud de la toundra forestière septentrionale pourraient coincider avec celle de l’aire de reproduction du faucon gerfaut. Mots clés: faucon gerfaut, nicheur, répartition, Baie d’Hudson, Québec. The gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) is a circumboreal breeder the eastern side of Hudson Bay from 1989 to 1992 (Fig. 1). which occurs in the arctic and subarctic regions of North Basins of the Great Whale, Little Whale and Nastapoka America and Eurasia (Brown and Amadon, 1968). In Canada Rivers, as well as some smaller catchments farther south and the species has been reported breeding sparsely north of 59˚ the Hudson Bay coast down to Long Island were covered, of latitude in the arctic tundra (Godfrey, 1986).

    IR# JRP.166 Downstream Effects below Muskrat Falls INFORMATION REQUESTS RESPONSES| LOWER CHURCHILL HYDROELECTRIC GENERATION PROJECT Requesting Organization – Joint Review Panel Information Request No.: JRP.166 Subject – Downstream Effects below Muskrat Falls References: EIS Guidelines, Section 4.5.1 (Environmental Effects General) Related Comments / Information Requests: IR # JRP.43, IR # JRP.149, IR # JRP.153 Information Requested: a. Nalcor hydrology studies indicate the Churchill River exerts a strong influence on the estuarine regime in Goose Bay and concerns have been expressed by a number of participants regarding the downstream effects of the Project. Explain the specific criteria used in Nalcor's response to Information Request (IR) JRP.43 to predict no measurable effect on downstream total phosphorus and total suspended solids, transport distances, fish productivity, salinity, velocity and thermal profiles from Goose Bay to Lake Melville, ice dynamics, ringed and harbour seal use of Lake Melville, bank stability, fish habitat utilization and fish migration. Identify whether and how these predictions apply to the period of reservoir impoundment, and the post‐impoundment transitional period before water quality stabilizes. Response: The influence of the lower Churchill River freshwater hydrology on Goose Bay and Lake Melville is recognized by Nalcor Energy (Nalcor) and has been central to limiting downstream effects to the extent possible. The minimal change in flow regime below Muskrat Falls as a result of the Project as described in IR# JRP.43, IR# JRP.149 and IR# JRP.153 mitigates most potential effects in terms of changes in salinity, circulation/current influenced by freshwater flows of the Churchill River, shoreline erosion (due to changes in water levels), tributary access, fish movements, habitat utilization and transportation distances.

Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page. We hope the characters and the things they learn and talk about also give the reader a better understanding of our province. Above all, we hope this book challenges your curiosity and encourages you to search for more information about our land.

Silva Charles R. Hale David Wilkins Roberta Hill Juan de Dios Yapita Narrating Native Histories aims to foster a rethinking of the ethical, methodological, and conceptual frameworks within which we locate our work on Native histories and cultures. We seek to create a space for effective and ongoing conversations between North and South, Natives and non- Natives, academics and activists, throughout the Americas and the Pacific region. This series encourages analyses that contribute to an understanding of Native peoples’ relationships with nation- states, including histo- ries of expropriation and exclusion as well as projects for autonomy and sovereignty. We encourage collaborative work that recognizes Native intellectuals, cultural inter- preters, and alternative knowledge producers, as well as projects that question the relationship between orality and literacy. skin for skin DEATH AND LIFE FOR INUIT AND INNU GERALD M.
