  • Lone Shieling Shelter

    Lone Shieling Shelter

    HERITAGE CHARACTER STATEMENT Page 1 FHBRO Number 93-71 Cape Breton, Nova Scotia Lone Shieling Shelter Cape Breton Highlands National Park The Lone Shieling Shelter at Cape Breton Highlands National Park (CBHNP) was constructed in 1942. The design was produced by the Engineering and Construction Branch of the Department of Mines and Resources for the National Parks. It was designed as a shelter for passers-by in the park. Canadian Heritage is now the custodial department. See FHBRO Building Report 93-71 Reasons for Designation The Lone Shieling Shelter was designated Recognized because of its environmental significance, its unique architectural features and its important historical associations. Environmental significance resides in the Shieling's rustic character, its setting in an old growth forest and its status as a well-known landmark along the Cabot Trail Highway. and detailing of stonework, timber and thatch roofing, which give the shelter its significant rustic appearance. The design was influenced by images from “the Clachan,” an exhibition in Glasgow of a Scottish village. The establishment of the CBHNP in 1936 as one of the first national parks in the maritime provinces signalled the expansion of the National Parks system to eastern Canada. In order to highlight its physical resemblance to the Scottish Highlands, the National Parks Bureau adopted the Scottish theme. Professor S. Macintosh, who bequeathed the 100 acres of land for the park, requested that a small cabin be built in the same design as the Lone Shieling on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. A cairn erected beside the Shieling to commemorate this bequest makes reference to the Lone Shieling on the Isle of Skye and to the theme of the Scottish inhabitants of Cape Breton.

    Introductions to Heritage Assets: Shielings

    Shielings Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which have previously lacked such a published summary, either because the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. This IHA provides an introduction to shielings (huts that served as temporary, summer, accommodation for people involved in transhumance, that is the removal of stock from permanent dwellings to exploit areas of summer pasture some distance away from the main settlement). Descriptions of the asset type and its development as well as its associations and a brief chronology are included. A list of in‑depth sources on the topic is suggested for further reading.

Samples were collected during both day and night at 26 stations in 2012 and 34 stations in 2013. In total, 234 stomatopods were collected: 45% were S. chydaea and 55% were S. empusa. The mean densities of each species varied significantly by year (2012 > 2013) and sampling time (night > day). The highest mean density (4.7 ind ha−1) was observed for S. empusa during night in 2012, which was 47 times higher than the lowest density of S. chydaea, found during the day in 2013. The highest densities for S. chydaea were observed offshore of Terminos Lagoon and for S. empusa in the vicinity of Terminos Lagoon and adjacent to Grijalva-Usumacinta and San Pedro–San Pablo rivers. Results indicated that for S. chydaea, the relationship between density and water depth was quadratic in form, with the highest densities occurring between 60 and 120 m.

Mantis shrimp in the genus Squilla are frequent bycatch animals unintentionally collected in conjunction with the shrimp fi shery in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). Their carcasses are discarded instead of being retained for human consumption, fi sh meal, or other protein-based food products. The size, depth, salinity, and temperature distributions of these species, as well as their abundance based on gender, were examined to gain biological information that would be necessary if a fi shery were to develop in the GOM.

Mcxico (SIPCO cruises) from 27 to 117 m and included 6 spccies of stomatopods. Squilla biformis Bigelow and S. parva Bigelow weTe the 1110st abun­ dant species. AH species were found in shallow water (31-75 m) except Squilla biformis which occurred mostIy below 100 m, wherc dissolved Qxygen concentration was lower than 0.6 miL. Othe! specics found are: Squillo panamensis Bigelow, S. hancocki Schmitt, Meiosquilla swetti (Schmitt) and Eurysquilla veleronis (Schmitt). Stomatopods of Ihe Eastern Pacific Region mantis shrimp occur.

The SIPCO Project ("Sinaloa, and have provided a very valuable and long Continental Platfonn") was initiated in 1980 as awaited taxonomic and phylogenetic reorga­ a first step towards a complete survey of Ihe nization of this group of crustaceans (Manning, Gulf of California, and was later continued as 1961; 1963; 1968; 1970; 1971; 1972a; 1972b; an exploratory sampling program in Ihe entire 1972c; 1974; 1976; Reaka and Manning, 1980; gulf (Cortés Project in 1982) (Hendrickx, 1981).

Limited work was undertaken in the late 1950s and 60s (Gaffney, 1959; Gaffney, 1967; MacSween, 1959; MacSween and Gailey, 1961), and this interest was kept alive by ethnographic work by Fenton (1977; 1980), and the historical study of shielings in Perthshire by Bil (1989; 1990a; 1990b). Recent archaeological surveys by Raven (2012) on South Uist and by Branigan (2002) and Branigan and Foster (2002) on Barra and Bishop’s Isles recorded numerous putative shieling sites with different shapes, sizes, and numbers of the structures visible on the ground, and different materials utilized to construct them, which all hint at different functions and chronologies of the sites. The earliest phase of one of the sites targeted for test-pit excavation on Barra was dated to the Viking Age on the basis of the artefactual assemblage, which was comparable to that of the Viking-age farm of Kilpheder on South Uist (Branigan and Foster 2002). The site was interpreted as a shieling due its marginal location, small size, and a shieling place-name, Gunnary, the shieling (Gaelic airigh) of Gunnar (Norse male name).
