A Relational Geography of Humans and Animals in the Bering Sea Region (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Erica Hill.

New approaches to animal geography have rapidly emerged over the last twenty years and have challenged accepted views of human–animal relations in a variety of contexts. While archaeologists studying past relational ontologies have explored the spatial components of human interactions with animals, so far archaeology has not explicitly engaged with animal geography. This paper investigates how the “new” or “third wave” animal geography (Urbanik 2012) might inform our understanding of the human...

Report from the Ragged Edge: Vanishing Heritage on Alaska’s North Slope (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Anne Jensen.

The North Slope of Alaska is home to many coastal sites with spectacular preservation, due to frozen conditions. Long considered relatively stable, these sites are now vanishing. Erosion rates have increased exponentially, due to warming permafrost, sea ice retreat and longer ice-free seasons. Coastal erosion reveals structures and features, but they are often destroyed by storms before anything significant can be done. A single recent storm removed over 30 meters of one site. North Slope...

Repositioning Habitus as Cultural Capital in Sami Museum Collections (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Natalia Magnani.

Ethnographic museum collections are frequently presented as regional culture histories, portraying a timeless native past. In the Sámi regions of Finland, institutionalized courses and individuals seek to manufacture of museum objects anew, and exhibit this present revival in concert with the past. The recreated objects are not only shown in their present living contexts but removed from museums and used at local cultural events. These new forms of representation emphasize living use and...

Responding to Burning Libraries (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Thomas McGovern.

Rising sea levels, increasing storminess, melting glaciers, rising soil temperatures, and increased wild fires are all increasingly affecting archaeological sites worldwide. Accelerated destruction of sites with organic preservation poses a dual threat to global and local cultural heritage and to archaeological evidence that is becoming recognized as key global change data. As archaeologists increasingly participate in local, national, and international efforts to promote genuine long term...

Rethinking Chronology in Barrow, Alaska: Assessing ∆R Variation and Applying Bayesian Chronological Models (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kerry Sayle. Anthony Krus. Anne Jensen. Derek Hamilton.

Over 200 radiocarbon dates from archaeological contexts are available from the Point Barrow vicinity, along northern Alaska’s Arctic coast, which has been occupied by hunter-foragers from the Birnirk period (AD 500–900) to the present day. Stable isotope analysis (δ13C and δ15N) of ancient humans from the Point Barrow vicinity indicates their diets were very rich in marine protein, and therefore interpretation of these radiocarbon dates has been hindered by radiocarbon offsets. Radiocarbon ages...

Revisiting the Morris Bay Kayak: Analysis and Implications for Inughuit Hunting Practices before the 19th Century (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew Walls. Pauline Knudsen. Frederik Larsen.

The Morris Bay Kayak is a unique assemblage that consists of kayak fragments and associated hunting equipment that was discovered in 1921 by chance in Washington Land, NW Greenland. This paper documents results from a collaborative project with the Greenland National Museum to re-analyze and date the Morris Bay Kayak, and to consider how it fits in the current perspectives on Inughuit archaeology. Working with the traditional kayaking community in Greenland, the project reconstructed the kayak’s...

The revival of gut skin parka production among the Siberian Yupik (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Vera Solovyeva. Amy Tjong.

The Siberian collections at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) are one of the world’s most important collections of cultural artifacts from Northeast Siberia. These artifacts were created as a result of the historic Jesup North Pacific Expedition (1897-1902) which sought to study the cultures framing the Bering Sea. In 2014, the Conservation Department at AMNH began a two-year project to stabilize and rehouse 100 items from this collection, including 14 gut skin parkas attributed to...
