It has been demonstrated that there is an association between low cross-sectional cortical bone volumes, growth retardation and health stress in subadult skeletal samples of past populations. In addition, previous research has detected significantly low percent cortical areas in several subadult age categories, particularly two to four year olds. An examination of children\&$\#$39;s bones from two southern Ontario Late Woodland ossuaries identified a lack of infants under six months, which reflects interment bias, and high proportions of two to three year olds, an observation which is supported by ethnohistoric accounts of feeding practices. The two to three year old groups have significantly lower percent cortical areas compared to the rest of the children. It is still not clear whether this abundance of stressed weanlings reflects nutritionally compromised populations.

This paper discusses the analysis of the chipped chert and obsidian assemblage excavated from Caves Branch Rockshelter (CBR) and provides a reconstruction of the patterns of lithic reduction and tool use. This small rockshelter, located in the Caves Branch River Valley of central Belize, was primarily used as a burial location by local Maya communities from the Protoclassic to Terminal Classic periods (A.D. 80\–950). However, both natural and cultural forces have badly disturbed and mixed deposits from different contexts within the site, thus severely hampering our ability to document the original deposition locations of lithic artifacts. The results of our analyses, which focused on the entire assemblage, demonstrated that reduction strategies varied by raw material type and provided evidence for some formal tool repair and expedient tool production. Based on use-wear analysis results, tools appear to have been mostly used for a variety of primarily daily domestic functions. We suspect the ancient Maya also used chert and obsidian artifacts as ritual objects, such as grave goods, offerings, and for sacrificial blood-letting, in CBR.

The Irving-Johnston site (AjGx-27), located in the Crawford Lake region of southern Ontario, yielded over 8,500 zooarchaeological specimens, a large sample considering the diet and some of the seasonal rounds related to the subsistence of its Neutral inhabitants. Most of the remains were mammalian and of this class, the majority were identified as deer. This led to a consideration of the claim that the Neutral Indians \&$\#$39;tended\&$\#$39; deer. In this paper we present a summary of the faunal material from the Irving-Johnston site and discuss both some of the ethnohistoric evidence and the age at death evidence concerning Neutral deer remains before reaching the conclusion that we cannot agree, at this time, that the Neutrals were managing deer herds.

Samples from two components of the Snyder Dam Site (DhMg-37), Southwestern Manitoba are discussed. Occupation 1 is a late Middle (or Initial) Woodland component with a weighted mean of three dates of A.D. 937\±39. Occupation 2 is a Late (or Terminal) Woodland component dating A.D. 1285\±70. The multiple dates represent a test of comparison using collagen versus charcoal dates and are accompanied by discussion of the relative merits of each material. The two components are represented by reconstructed vessels. The reconstructions show that much more information is available than from rim sherds. An attempt to relate the squat conoidal textile impressed vessels of Occupation 1 materials with other ceramic typologies of the Middle Woodland period shows that the Snyder Dam component is unique and that comparative analysis is hampered by rarity of reconstructions, lack of analysis of textile surface impressions, poor quality of visual presentations, and local regional orientation of analysis.
