Large multi-lineage villages were unlikely to have existed at earlier times on Haida Gwaii and much smaller, widely dispersed settlements were probably the rule for the late pre-contact period. Previous settlement analyses correlated settlement size and location, number and size of houses, the presence or absence of an historical component for all identified {\textquoteright}village{\textquoteright} sites, combined with consideration of Haida oral traditions and family histories. In this paper we build on previous approaches by integrating an analysis of biophysical variables in relation to settlements and other site types in Gwaii Haanas.

In this paper we review recent developments in the debate over the emergence of modern human behaviour (MHB) to show that despite considerable diversity among competing models, the identification of given material traits still underpins almost all current perspectives. This approach, however, allows assumptions over the biological relationship between archaic and modern humans to permeate the definitions of MHB and, as a result, has effectively stultified archaeology\’s potential contribution to the issue. We suggest that the concept of MHB as currently defined is flawed. It must either be redefined in strictly behavioural terms before reincorporation into the debate over modern human origins or, more productively, discarded all together to avoid the harsh and unrealistic dichotomy it creates between a modern and non-modern archaeological record.

High collared pottery rim sherds from sites designated as Huron-Wendat and St. Lawrence Iroquoian are analysed using a community of practice approach. Using several analytical methods on the same ceramic sherds, we aimed to determine the technological choices made by potters. We focused specifically on clay selection, temper selection and processing, preparation of the clay body and formation of the rim. Our findings demonstrate that for each step in the production process there are a range of practices represented within the study region. However, comparison with adjacent areas and earlier periods shows that there is consistency in technological choices that are specific to our study area. We argue that this is consistent with connections between the pottery making traditions in the Simcoe Uplands in Ontario and the St. Lawrence Valley areas. As traditions were maintained by people, so we envision connected communities across the study area.

Writing-On-Stone, a short stretch of the Milk River valley in southern Alberta containing 58 petroglyph and pictograph sites, is one of the largest concentration.s . of rock art in western North America. The several thousand motifs recorded at these sites comprise five major categories: anthropomorphs, zoomorphs, items of material culture, tool grooves/tally marks, and geometric abstracts. Two functional rock art types, Ceremonial Art and Biographic Art, occur. Ceremonial Art dates to the Late Prehistoric and Early Historic periods between approximately A.D. 1300 and 1750, and consists of a constellation of motifs drawn as part of a ritualized vision quest ceremony. Biographic Art is dated by the preponderance of guns, horses, white men and other historic objects to the period between A.D. 1750 and 1880. The common depictions of secular activities and utilitarian objects indicates that Biographic Art functioned as a record of the personal exploits of individual warriors. The artists reponsible for the Biographic Art include members of the Blackfeet, Cree, Gros Ventres, Assiniboine and probably other tribes.

We provide a critical response to Andrew Martindale and Natasha Lyons\’ 2014 special section on Community-Oriented Archaeology (Canadian Journal of Archaeology Volume 38, Issue 2), discussing the authors\’ definitions, interpretations, and motivations around archaeology and community. By not defining archaeology in terms of how it is most commonly practiced, we argue the collective work misses the mark, with serious consequences for descendent communities. We show how Community-Oriented Archaeology appropriates the challenge posed to archaeologists to make their discipline relevant and responsive to Indigenous communities; instead, the authors foreground archaeology itself and reaffirm the privilege of non-Indigenous archaeologists, especially academic archaeologists. By considering what is excluded and taken-for-granted, we examine the special section in terms of selection bias and revisionist history. We suggest Community-Oriented Archaeology co-opts aspects of Indigenous, critical, and radical discourses to legitimize the institution and practice, in the process forgetting what is at stake for Indigenous peoples. Rather than focusing on the needs of archaeology and archaeologists, we emphasize the interests of Indigenous communities and address uncomfortable truths about institutional racism and systemic inequality.

Prehistoric archaeologists are confronted by a growing world-wide movement by indigenous peoples to reclaim their history and heritage. In some countries, this movement has resulted in significantly decreased access by archaeologists to the basic data of their study. Recent statements by Canadian Indian leaders indicate that prehistoric archaeology in Canada may soon be similarly constrained. The argument for such constraint will be based on the contention that archaeological interpretations of the past denigrate native cultural heritage and belief, and contribute to the cultural and social problems of contemporary native communities. Archaeologists should be aware of the divergences between archaeological interpretations of the past and those of native leaders; the question of Indian origins is discussed as an example of such divergence.

Reconstructions of Thule Culture settlement patterns have for the most part relied on data from two different types of semi-subterranean dwelling structure: winter houses and qarmat. Two rather different annual rounds have been proposed on the basis of these house types, and many of our inferences concerning the development of the Historic Inuit from the Thule Culture have been based on this. The utility of the winter house/qarmat distinction is explored using historic and archaeological data, and it is argued that some generally accepted models of Thule settlement and subsistence need to be tested.

The Wakimika Petroglyph site located in northeastern Ontario is a rare rock art site within the Canadian Shield that exhibits stylistic similarities with petroglyph sites of the Lake-of-the-Woods style.
