WEST COAST WHALING PEOPLE: A CASE STUDY Early Development Stage Artifacts of the Coast, 3500-5500 BP: From left to right at the top are three bilaterally barbed antler harpoons, a unilaterally Barbed antler fishing-spear point, a diamond-shaped flaked-stone spearhead or knife, a Ground-slate point, and a small antler splitting-wedge. In the center are a spindle- Shaped bone object, a mussel-shell adze blade, and a stemmed flaked-stone point. At bottom are a small steatite labret and a pecked and ground chisel. Vancouver’s Marpole Midden in 1908 Middle Developmental Stage Artifacts of the Coast (1500-3500 BP): At the top, left to right, are a bone awl, two ground-slate points, two flaked-stone stemmed points, a large leaf-shaped spearhead or knife from Namu, a unilaterally barbed bone point, an antler toggling-harpoon head, a composite antler toggling-harpoon valve and two unilaterally barbed antler harpoons. In the center are two bone pendants from Prince Rupert, a bone needle, a perforated claw pendant and two dentalium-shell beads, a ground-slate fish-knife and a small adze blade. At the bottom are a string of slate disc-beads, a north- coast rib-stone, and a decorated steatite bowl. Carved stone club from Hagwilet, Lower Skeena River area, North Coast: This is one of a cache of 35 clubs, each uniquely designed. Similar artifacts found at Prince Rupert and on Haida Gwaii appear to be as much as 2500 years old. This carving depicts a supernatural creature with a bird-like head and four dorsal fins that form protruding blades for the weapon. These drawings show different kinds of toggling harpoons and their component parts found in coastal sites of the last 3500 years. Middle Developmental Era Antler and Bone Sculptures (1500-3500 BP): At top left are a stylized bone bird-pin and a miniature long-beaked bird-mask of antler. In the center, from left to right, are three human effigies of bone and antler, two stylized antler bird-figures, and an antler sculpture of a long-beaked bird. The decorated carving- tool handle at the bottom is in the form of a sea monster or wolf. All pieces are from the south coast, and all but the miniature mask and the central human-face effigy are from the Marpole site. Steatite Seated-Human- Figure Bowl from the Lower Fraser River Valley Coastal Petroglyph: This carving, near Prince Rupert, is called “The Man Who Fell From Heaven.” Many Tsimshian stories tell about this site and the powerful supernatural being who fell from the sky-world long ago to leave his impression in the rock. Carved Cedar Handle from Prince Rupert: This 1600-year-old wooden carving, 19 centimeters long, was preserved in waterlogged deposits at the Lachane site. originally, it was probably a handle on the lid or sides of a wooden box or bowl.

An Overview • It has been estimated that at the time of the first contact with Europeans, nearly half the indigenous people in Canada lived in what is today British Columbia. • Estimates of numbers are tentative. • The anthropologist Wilson Duff concluded that 80,000 or more aboriginals lived in British Columbia in the late 18th century. • A number of contemporary scholars suggest a pre-contact population in the range of 200,000 to 300,000. • At least 34 distinct languages were spoken. Characteristics Of Pre-Contact Coast Culture • The economies were based on the two bountiful staples of salmon and cedar. • All the coastal peoples lived within sophisticated social organizations based on the concept of inherited rank and on intricate patterns of sanctioned and prohibited behaviour. • Nowhere north of Mexico were distinctions between individuals of high and low status so sharply drawn as on the northwest coast. • People of the coast were recognized as belonging to specific houses and clans. • Outside and below these classes were slaves, in some villages making up a third of the population. The Subarctic • The Subarctic includes most of the northern portion of the Canadian provinces.

  • Arqueologia Do Povoamento Inicial Da América Ou História Antiga Da
    Bol. Mus. Para. Emílio Goeldi. Cienc. Hum., Belém, v. 14, n. 2, p. 477-495, maio-ago. 2019 Arqueologia do povoamento inicial da América ou História Antiga da América: quão antigo pode ser um ‘Novo Mundo’? The Archaeology of early peopling of America or Ancient History of America: how old could be a ‘New World’? Lucas Bueno Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brasil Resumo: Neste texto, discutimos o tema do povoamento inicial da América como uma narrativa – mais do que sítios, datas e artefatos, são analisados os discursos construídos a partir destes ‘dados’. Esta proposta baseia-se em uma perspectiva da Arqueologia que enfatiza a dinâmica social envolvida na construção do passado. Um dos pontos discutidos envolve a desconstrução da dicotomia entre ‘história x pré-história’ nas Américas. Essa discussão baseia-se em propostas relacionadas à ideia de ‘tempo profundo’ e ‘história profunda’, como já vem sendo discutido por historiadores, arqueólogos e antropólogos em outros países. Além de uma discussão conceitual sobre a construção dessas narrativas, propomos uma reflexão também sobre aspectos metodológicos vinculados à pesquisa de contextos relacionados aos momentos iniciais de entrada de pessoas nas Américas. Por fim, sugerimos alguns pontos para reflexão no sentido de construirmos uma História Antiga das Américas que incorpore diferentes formas de narrativa e temporalidades, cuja construção envolveria posições mais simétricas entre os diversos grupos que compõem essa história. Palavras-chave: Arqueologia. Povoamento. Narrativa. América. História indígena. Abstract: This text discusses the topic of the early peopling of the Americas as a narrative which extends beyond sites, dates, and artifacts to analyze the discourses constructed from these ‘data.’ This proposal is based on an archaeological perspective that emphasizes the social dynamics involved in constructing the past.

  • Management Plan for the Olympia Oyster (Ostrea Conchaphila) in Canada [PROPOSED]
    PROPOSED SPECIES AT RISK ACT Management Plan Series Management Plan for the Olympia Oyster (Ostrea conchaphila) in Canada Olympia Oyster May 2009 About the Species at Risk Act Management Plan Series What is the Species at Risk Act (SARA)? SARA is the Act developed by the federal government as a key contribution to the common national effort to protect and conserve species at risk in Canada. SARA came into force in 2003, and one of its purposes is “to manage species of special concern to prevent them from becoming endangered or threatened.” What is a species of special concern? Under SARA, a species of special concern is a wildlife species that could become threatened or endangered because of a combination of biological characteristics and identified threats. Species of special concern are included in the SARA List of Wildlife Species at Risk. What is a management plan? Under SARA, a management plan is an action-oriented planning document that identifies the conservation activities and land use measures needed to ensure, at a minimum, that a species of special concern does not become threatened or endangered. For many species, the ultimate aim of the management plan will be to alleviate human threats and remove the species from the List of Wildlife Species at Risk. The plan sets goals and objectives, identifies threats, and indicates the main areas of activities to be undertaken to address those threats. Management plan development is mandated under Sections 65–72 of SARA (http://www.sararegistry.gc.ca/approach/act/default_e.cfm). A management plan has to be developed within three years after the species is added to the List of Wildlife Species at Risk.

  • The Fur Trade Era, 1770S–1849
    Great Bear Rainforest The Fur Trade Era, 1770s–1849 The Fur Trade Era, 1770s–1849 The lives of First Nations people were irrevocably changed from the time the first European visitors came to their shores. The arrival of Captain Cook heralded the era of the fur trade and the first wave of newcomers into the future British Columbia who came from two directions in search of lucrative pelts. First came the sailors by ship across the Pacific Ocean in pursuit of sea otter, then soon after came the fort builders who crossed the continent from the east by canoe. These traders initiated an intense period of interaction between First Nations and European newcomers, lasting from the 1780s to the formation of the colony of Vancouver Island in 1849, when the business of trade was the main concern of both parties. During this era, the newcomers depended on First Nations communities not only for furs, but also for services such as guiding, carrying mail, and most importantly, supplying much of the food they required for daily survival. First Nations communities incorporated the newcomers into the fabric of their lives, utilizing the new trade goods in ways which enhanced their societies, such as using iron to replace stone axes and guns to augment the bow and arrow. These enhancements, however, came at a terrible cost, for while the fur traders brought iron and guns, they also brought unknown diseases which resulted in massive depopulation of First Nations communities. European Expansion The northwest region of North America was one of the last areas of the globe to feel the advance of European colonialism.
