Recognition of two types of gear was substantiated by the analysis of manufacturing techniques performed on the associated by-products. Personal gear (e.g. arrowheads, knife handles), made from antler, was manufactured with considerable effort and skill. These tools would have been prepared in anticipation of future caribou hunting.

As the biosphere continues to be degraded, archaeologists will be hard pressed to maintain a scientific archaeology in the face of excessive industrial and population growth. By deconstructing archaeology and its goals as one would peel an onion, a new stratigraphy of hidden agendas emerges. The post-processualists have identified political and ideological motives for doing archaeology, to which can be added, economic motives.

However, further deconstruction reveals ecological and spiritual concerns which are deeper than mere subsistence-ecological reconstructions and which will surface as part of the struggle for a habitable planet. Structural analysis places the archaeologist as a mediator in the nature-culture duality, while at a still more archaic level, archaeologists will likely join philosophers and theologians in developing/rediscovering new codes of ethics and spirituality which are not anthropocentric. Increased environmental activism is a predictable adjunct.

A case is presented for the development of a more future-oriented archaeology, where the past is no longer of exclusive interest. This entails discussion of the diachronic nature of archaeology, recent theoretical trends, the potential for a futures perspective and consideration of the requisite changes in data and systematics. The second portion of the paper focuses on emerging general biocultural theory, the prospective involvement of archaeology in this enterprise and notes the Orwellian political implications of applying such theory.

Taconite artifacts from the stratified Cummins site near Thunder Bay dating ca. 7,500-9,000 BP were tested for blood protein residues. Cross-over electrophoresis (CIEP), an analytical technique commonly used in forensic investigations, was used for identifications. Commercially available anti-sera for mammalian and avian families were tested against archaeological residues. At present this method and the available anti-sera allow identification of organic residues only to family level. Our results, which include human, bovine (bison), deer and several other mammalian families indicate that protein immunoglobins are preserved on archaeological materials for millennia and that identification is possible.

Taphonomic disturbance is examined at the Lovstrom site, a site containing Vickers Focus and Late Woodland ceramics. In particular, the role of pocket gophers as major taphonomic agents in prairie/parkland sites in southwestern Manitoba is discussed. The magnitude and the nature of disturbance at the Lovstrom site by Pocket Gophers are quantified, together with a brief account of their ecology, social patterning and capabilities as a burrowing species. Materials greater than 7\ cm in diameter, including bone, cannot be readily moved through the gopher burrows and, though subject to the effects of soil subsidence, essentially remain in their relative positions and provide potentially accurate radiocarbon dates.

The Lowton site, type site for the horticulturally supported Vickers Focus, has long been of interest to Manitoba archaeologists. Since the site was first identified, in the 1920s, it has proven difficult to accurately date and to firmly establish the degree of horticultural dependence. To address these problems, and to recover material for radiocarbon dating, subsurface testing for storage pits and undisturbed deposits was undertaken in 1992. Testing did not identify pits, but evidence of a hearth was recovered. Excavations revealed that while this feature was undisturbed by cultivation, it was extensively disturbed by rodent activity. A radiocarbon date of 510 +/-110 B.P. was obtained on associated bone. These finds, together with the continued recovery of artifacts on the surface indicate that intact deposits likely occur in other parts of the site.

In this paper an integrated approach to archaeological data collection and interpretation is offered, based upon the fundamental idea that all archaeological materials were deposited in a complex, interactive, contextual milieu, comprised of the physical, biological and cultural aspects of a past environment. Further, it is apparent that these useful but arbitrary divisions of the contextual milieu were intimately interconnected and, while they can be readily separated for analytical purposes, this interconnection must be recognized to fully understand the context in which past societies operated. A brief discussion of the major aspects of the physical, biological and cultural environment and their significance for human populations is offered, followed by a discussion of evidence upon which our analyses relied. This paper provides a contextual interpretive framework using examples from the SCAPE Project to illustrate the utility of an applied theoretical approach to the collection and subsequent interpretation of archaeological data.

The prevailing models of Late Prehistoric subsistence in southwestern Manitoba have been based upon the premise of a straightforward hunter/getherer economy relying upon the local ecology of the forest/parkland/plains biomes. In some cases, trade with the Middle Missouri Village Tribes has been incorporated as a \&$\#$39;risk reducing\&$\#$39; mechanism. These models propose a seasonal round exploiting the available natural subsistence resources at peaks of productivity and quality. Recent work at the Lovstrom and Johnas sites near Brandon on the Souris and Assiniboine Rivers, respectively, and at Lockport and Winnipeg on the Red River suggest that these models may be inadequate. The Lovstrom and Johnas sites indicate extended occupations by people using agricultural tools and whose ceramic affiliations appear to relate to groups in North Dakota and western Minnesota known to have practiced horticulture. Many of the distinctive ceramic traits which characterize vessels in these sites are not found in the usual Woodland assemblages recorded in south-western Manitoba. It seems probable that these sites represent an expansion into southern Manitoba by groups from the south who practised horticulture as a part of their normal subsistence strategy.

Previous research on Vickers Focus sites in the eastern sections of the Souris-Pembina Trench in southwestern Manitoba, conducted by the senior author, indicated a center-based settlement strategy supported by a combination of hunter-gatherer and small-scale horticultural practice. The Lowton site is the center for this cluster and contains numerous luxury items and exotic materials. Research conducted by both authors in the summers of 1995-1999 at the Makotchi-Ded Dontipi locale revealed a central-place clustering of Vickers Focus and Mortlach sites. The sites show a diversity of faunal remains covering both winter and warm season occupations and no apparent evidence of horticultural activity. These materials indicate functional subsistence activities and there is an absence of the exotic and ceremonial artifacts recovered in the eastern sites. While there is clearly cultural continuity from the Initial Middle Missouri presence at the Duthie Site, through subsequent Vickers Focus and Mortlach occupations, the material remains, and their distribution, indicate significant changes in the settlement and subsistence patterns of the Vickers Focus people through time and space.

Archaeology, ethnohistory, and an oral tradition provide three streams of information to help recognise and define an early 17th century ranked society among the Neutral Iroquois of the Hamilton-Niagara region. Specific factors contributing to this definition include the presence of: a paramount chief with absolute authority over some ten tribes; settlement unit hierarchies; sizeable population density; massive warfare; long-distance trade; subsistence productivity; ranked burials; and indications of some part-time craft specialization. The historic Neutral Iroquois case illustrates a veritable chiefdom at a higher and more complex level of socio-political organization than other contemporaneous Iroquoian confederacies. This evolutionary advancement for the early 17th century Neutral developed, flourished, and collapsed during the life-time of paramount warrior-priest-chief, Tsouharissen (\&$\#$39;the Sun\&$\#$39;s Child\&$\#$39;).
