In this paper, Unsettling Archaeology refers to improving how we as archaeologists work with Indigenous communities on their heritage. A fundamental part of this process involves how we train students, and the archaeology field school provides a perfect vehicle in which to explore new avenues. Since 2000, the University of Northern British Columbia has partnered with a number of Indigenous communities on the coast and in the interior of British Columbia, to deliver 13 field schools in various locations. A key pillar of the field school model is the integration and weaving of traditional knowledge taught by community members, and a science-based approach to field methods, taught by university staff. This paper describes the initial field school model and highlights problems and successes with implementation.

The late sixteenth century Huron-Wendat Benson site in the Balsam Lake area of south-central Ontario has produced substantial quantities of a characteristic \‘barred\’ ceramic motif found virtually nowhere else. In addition, it has produced ceramics that are \“hybrids\” of Huron-Wendat and St. Lawrence Iroquoian styles. An analysis of these ceramics leads to the interpretation that they are part of a complex process of power brokering by women in the community. In part this entails symbolic resistance on the part of adopted St. Lawrence Iroquoian women. At the same time, it reveals a strategy used by both St. Lawrence Iroquoian and Huron-Wendat women of sending signals of ambiguous political allegiance, either to achieve a degree of political flexibility, or to attempt to mediate between the community\’s two competing political factions.

The hillside settlement of Shxwexw{\'o}:s (Place of the Thunderbird) (DhRl-97) is located in the midst of a densely settled residential landscape at the confluence of the Chehalis and Harrison Rivers in southwestern British Columbia. Hillside settlements such as Shxwexw{\'o}:s have rarely been investigated archaeologically anywhere in the Salish Sea or Northwest Coast, which may contribute to major gaps in our understanding of past land use and social histories. Our mapping and excavations indicate that as many as 40 family-sized groups created platforms on which they could erect small houses primarily between approximately 1500 and 1200 cal BP. Faunal and botanical evidence reveals people were living on these platforms through much of the year, hunting for deer and other mammals, harvesting plants, and fishing for salmon. Artifact distributions and analyses reveal that wide-ranging activities occurred across a large portion of the site and that people had access to a variety of local and non-local tool stone materials.
