	abstract = {<p>Harpoon head seriation provides the only reference typology available for the Dorset period, with lithic tools still awaiting a formal typology. Cultural attributions have been dependent on absolute dating when diagnostic artifacts such as harpoon heads are absent. A study of the lithic collection from site GhGk-63 has led us to question the validity of those typological data that serve as the basis for cultural affiliations for the late Palaeoeskimo period in the Arctic. We propose a new approach to the study of lithic industries in the Arctic that employs the analysis of lithic technology as it has been developed in France. Our purpose in this paper is to evaluate the utility of this analytical approach to Palaeoeskimo lithic assemblages by employing it in our analysis of the collection recovered from GhGk-63. The results point to its relevance for the characterization of lithic production during the Middle Dorset, and to its potential contribution to comparative studies.</p>},
