About the Caa / À Propos De L'aca ABOUT THE CAA / À PROPOS DE L’ACA The Canadian Archaeological Association (caa) was founded in 1968. Membership includes professional, avocational and student archaeologists, as well as individuals of the general public of any country, who are interested in furthering the objectives of the Association. The objectives of the caa are as follows: § To promote the increase and the dissemination of archaeological knowledge in Canada; § To promote active discourse and cooperation among archaeological societies and agencies and encourage archaeological research and conservation efforts; § To foster cooperative endeavours with aboriginal groups and agencies concerned with First Peoples’ heritage of Canada; § To serve as the national association capable of promoting activities advantageous to archaeology and discouraging activities detrimental to archaeology; § To publish archaeological literature, and; § To stimulate the interest of the general public in archaeology. ——— L’Association canadienne d’archéologie (aca) a été fondée en 1968. Ses adhérents comptent des archéologues dont c’est la profession ou un violon d’Ingres et des étudiants, ainsi que des membres venant du grand public et de n’importe quel pays, qui ont en vue de favoriser les objectifs de l’Association. Les objectifs de l’aca sont les suivants: § promouvoir l’accroissement et la propagation de connaissances archéologiques au Canada; § promouvoir une coopération et des échanges actifs entre les sociétés et les organismes archéologiques, et favoriser le travail de recherche et de conservation; § stimuler les efforts de coopération avec les groupes autochtones et les organismes concernés par le patrimoine canadien des Premières nations; § servir d’association nationale pouvant promouvoir les activités avantageuses pour l’archéologie et décourager les activités nuisibles à l’archéologie; § publier de la documentation archéologique; § stimuler l’intérêt du grand public pour l’archéologie.

We have come a long way from the inaugural caa meeting in Winnipeg in early May of 1968, attended by 78 archaeologists and students (mostly men), including several icons of Canadian archaeology and a number of Smith-Wintemberg Award recipients - Norm Emerson, Dick Forbis, Ruth Gruhn, Barney Reeves, Leigh Syms, Bill Taylor, Bruce Trigger, Jim Tuck, and Jim Wright. Paper topics featured site excavations and artifact finds. If these archaeologists could have been transported in a time machine to the caa in 2017, they would be amazed and perhaps somewhat puzzled by the topics of many of the sessions and papers—crm, forensic archaeology, lidar, public archaeology, ams dating, postmodern theory, digital data, Indigenous archaeology, ancient dna, and archaeology of the Franklin expedition. They would enjoy speaking with the new generation of archaeologists while attending the tours of the new Canadian History Hall at the Canadian Museum of History, the A.E. Lalonde ams Laboratory at the University of Ottawa, the Canadian Conservation Institute, the collections of Parks Canada, and the Diefenbunker, and the opening reception, pub night, banquet, and other social events where (let’s be honest) archaeological meetings really happen. A team of heritage professionals from the Canadian Museum of History organized the 50th Annual Meeting—no small feat. The Directors of the caa tip their field hats to the organizing committee for a job well done. Members of the Ottawa Chapter, Ontario Archaeological Society also worked hard to organize the Sunday archaeology tour. Lastly, the caa Board of Directors wishes to acknowledge the generous financial support of the 2017 meeting from the U.S. Mission to Canada Public Affairs Grant program. The caa Board of Directors hopes that you enjoy the papers and posters, that you participate in the social gatherings and tours, and that you immerse yourself in the joie de vivre of Gatineau. And we hope that the young bright minds of Canadian archaeology, the students in attendance, remember this meeting with fondness when they attend the 100th caa meeting! Enjoy! ——— Bienvenue à la 50e rencontre annuelle de l’Association canadienne d’archéologie (aca), qui a lieu cette année à Gatineau, sur le territoire des peuples algonquins de la rivière des Outaouais! Nous avons fait bien du chemin depuis la première rencontre de l’aca à Winnipeg au début mai 1968, à laquelle 78 archéologues et étudiants (surtout des hommes) avaient assisté, notamment des figures de proue de l’archéologie canadienne et plusieurs lauréats du prix Smith-Wintemberg : Norm Emerson, Dick Forbis, Ruth Gruhn, Barney Reeves, Leigh Syms, Bill Taylor, Bruce Trigger, Jim Tuck et Jim Wright. Leurs communications portaient sur les fouilles et la découverte d’artefacts. S’ils pouvaient voyager dans le temps pour assister à la rencontre de cette année, ils seraient étonnés, et sans doute quelque peu perplexes, devant les sujets de plusieurs de nos séances et communications : gestion des ressources culturelles, archéologie médico- légale, technologie lidar, archéologie publique, datation sma, théorie postmoderne, données numériques, archéologie autochtone, adn ancien et archéologie de l’expédition Franklin. Ils seraient ravis de discuter avec une nouvelle génération d’archéologues en visitant la nouvelle Salle de l’Histoire canadienne au Musée canadien de l’histoire, le laboratoire André-E.-Lalonde de sma à l’Université d’Ottawa, l’Institut canadien de conservation, les collections de Parcs Canada et le Diefenbunker. Ils apprécieraient sûrement aussi la réception inaugurale, la soirée au pub, le banquet et les autres activités sociales où ont lieu les véritables rencontres, vous en conviendrez. CAA/ACA 50 OTTAWA-GATINEAU 2017 iii Une équipe de professionnels du patrimoine au Musée canadien de l’histoire a réalisé tout un exploit en préparant cette 50e rencontre. Les directeurs de l’aca lèvent leur chapeau au comité d’organisation pour son excellent travail. Les membres de la Société ontarienne d’archéologie (section d’Ottawa) ont aussi travaillé fort pour préparer la visite archéologique de dimanche. Enfin, le conseil d’administration de l’aca remercie le programme d’affaires publiques de l’ambassade des États-Unis au Canada pour son généreux appui à la rencontre de cette année. Nous espérons que vous apprécierez les communications et présentations, participerez aux activités et visites sociales, et vous laisserez gagner par la joie de vivre qui règne à Gatineau. Qui sait, les brillants jeunes cerveaux de la relève canadienne en archéologie (les étudiants qui participent à cette rencontre) se la rappelleront peut-être avec émotion lors de la 100e rencontre!

  • The Use of Stone and Hunting of Reindeer
    ARCHAEOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENT 12 THE USE OF STONE AND HUNTING OF REINDEER By Lena Holm O m University of Umeå ° Ai. ^ Department of Archaeology ARCHAEOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENT 12 Distribution: Department of Archaeology, University of Umeå S-901 87 Umeå, Sweden Lena Holm THE USE OF STONE AND HUNTING OF REINDEER A Study of Stone Tool Manufacture and Hunting of Large Mammals in the Central Scandes c. 6 000 - 1 BC. Akademisk avhandling, som för avläggande av filosofie doktors­ examen vid universitetet i Umeå kommer att offentligt för­ svaras i hörsal F, Humanisthuset, Umeå universitet, fredagen den 31 januari 1992 klockan 10.00. Abstract The thesis raises questions concerning prehistoric conditions in a high mountain region in central Scandinavia; it focuses on the human use of stone and on hunting principally of reindeer. An analysis of how the stone material was utilized and an approach to how large mammals were hunt­ ed result in a synthesis describing one interpretation of how the vast landscape of a region in the central Scandinavian high mountains was used. With this major aim as a base questions were posed concerning the human use of stone resources and possible changes in this use. Preconditions for the occurrence of large mammals as game animals and for hunting are also highlighted. A general perspective is the long time period over which possible changes in the use of stone and hunting of big game, encompassing the Late Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age and to a certain extent the Early Iron Age. Considering the manufacture of flaked stone tools, debitage in the form of flakes from a dwelling, constitute the base where procurement and technology are essential.

There were no survivors among the 329 passengers and crew members. There was unanimous official opinion among authorities that an inflight breakup caused by an explosion in the forward cargo compartment occurred. Based on the direct, tangible and circumstantial evidence of four similar accidents as described in six aircraft accident reports and using the benefit of hindsight, the conclusion of this investigator and author of this report is that the probable cause of the accident to Air India Flight 182 was faulty wiring shorting on the door unlatch motor causing the forward cargo door to inadvertently rupture open in flight probably at one or both of the midspan latches leading to an explosion of explosive decompression in the forward cargo compartment and subsequent aircraft breakup.

  • Prehistoric Lithic Technology} Workshops} and Chipping Stations in the Philippines
    Prehistoric Lithic Technology} Workshops} and Chipping Stations in the Philippines D. KYLE LATINIS THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS represent an important area for research of problems concerning prehistoric archaeology in Southeast Asia. These insular areas, located east of the biogeographic boundary known as Huxley's line, include a variety of tropical environments. These islands remained detached from the continental portion of Southeast Asia throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene. Archaeolog­ ical research has documented human occupation and adaptation from at least the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene within these islands. Unfortunately, relatively little intensive prehistoric archaeological research has been undertaken in the Philippines compared to some areas in mainland South­ east Asia, Oceania, and Australia. Warren Peterson's dissertation (1974) focused on a series of sites in northern Luzon and represents one of the foundation stud­ ies in the Philippines for modern archaeology. Peterson's work has often been cited and his conclusions used for the development of models concerning prehis­ tory in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. Peterson's research was conducted during a period when behavioral reconstruc­ tions from site assemblage analyses were prominent in archaeological research. Specifically, Peterson attempted behavioral reconstruction from the analysis of stone tools from the Busibus/Pintu site in northern Luzon, Philippines. A reanal­ ysis of the entire Busibus/Pintu lithic assemblage has revealed problems with Peterson's initial analysis and interpretation of this site-problems that will be addressed in this paper. Lithic technology, stone tool manufacture, and selection and reduction strategies will also be explored. Finally, new interpretations of the nature of the lithic assemblage and site activities at Busibus/Pintu rock shelter will be provided.

While this is an expressed ideal, educational programs have focused on first and second language learning and have not dealt with the relationship between Yupik and non-Yupik cultures or with the concept of culture change. This thesis describes a secondary-level bilingual-bicultural program designed by an anthropologist to address such issues. Background information is provided on Yupik culture and language and on the history of bilingual education in the region. The results of a survey of parent, teacher, student, and administrator opinions of bilingual education are summarized. The collaboration of the ethnographer with Native teachers in the development of instructional materials and methods is discussed. The paper discusses in detail the program projects that guide students to examine personal values in light of Yupik tradition and current social, economic, and political conditions.

    Escape into Nature: the Ideology of Pacific Spirit Regional Park by Marina J. La Salle M.A., The University of British Columbia, 2008 B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2014 © Marina La Salle, 2014 ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates the ideology of Pacific Spirit Regional Park, an urban forest adjacent to the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Using the tools of archaeology and anthropology, I analyse the history, landscape, performance, and discourse of the park to understand Pacific Spirit as a culturally-constructed place that embodies an ideology of imperialism. Central in this dynamic is the carefully crafted illusion of Pacific Spirit as a site of “nature,” placed in opposition to “culture,” which naturalizes the values that created and are communicated through the park and thereby neutralizes their politics. They remain, however, very political. The park as nature erases the history and heritage of the Indigenous peoples of this region, transforming Pacific Spirit into a new terra nullius—a site to be discovered and explored, militaristic themes that consistently underlie park programs and propaganda. These cultural tropes connect to produce a nationalistic settler narrative wherein class ideals of nature and community are evoked in the celebration of Canada’s history of colonialism and capitalist expansion—paradoxically, the very processes that have caused the fragmentation of communities and ecosystems. The park as nature also feeds into the portrayal of this space as having been saved from development and, as such, an environmental triumph.

  • The Final Days of the Franklin Expedition: New Skeletal Evidence ANNE KEENLEYSIDE,1 MARGARET BERTULLI2 and HENRY C
    ARCTIC VOL. 50, NO. 1 (MARCH 1997) P. 36–46 The Final Days of the Franklin Expedition: New Skeletal Evidence ANNE KEENLEYSIDE,1 MARGARET BERTULLI2 and HENRY C. FRICKE3 (Received 19 June 1996; accepted in revised form 21 October 1996) ABSTRACT. In 1992, a previously unrecorded site of Sir John Franklin’s last expedition (1845–1848) was discovered on King William Island in the central Canadian Arctic. Artifacts recovered from the site included iron and copper nails, glass, a clay pipe fragment, pieces of fabric and shoe leather, buttons, and a scatter of wood fragments, possibly representing the remains of a lifeboat or sledge. Nearly 400 human bones and bone fragments, representing a minimum of 11 men, were also found at the site. A combination of artifactual and oxygen isotope evidence indicated a European origin for at least two of these individuals. Skeletal pathology included periostitis, osteoarthritis, dental caries, abscesses, antemortem tooth loss, and periodontal disease. Mass spectroscopy and x-ray fluorescence revealed elevated lead levels consistent with previous measurements, further supporting the conclusion that lead poisoning contributed to the demise of the expedition. Cut marks on approximately one-quarter of the remains support 19th-century Inuit accounts of cannibalism among Franklin’s crew. Key words: Franklin Expedition, skeletal remains, oxygen isotope analysis, lead poisoning, cannibalism RÉSUMÉ. En 1992, on a découvert un site non mentionné auparavant, relié à la dernière expédition de sir John Franklin (1845- 1848) dans l’île du Roi-Guillaume, située au centre de l’océan Arctique canadien. Les artefacts récupérés sur ce site comprenaient des clous en fer et en cuivre, du verre, un fragment de pipe en terre, des morceaux de tissu et de cuir de chaussure, des boutons et de multiples fragments de bois éparpillés, qui pourraient venir d’un canot de sauvetage ou d’un traîneau.
