Book Archaeological Research at Calling Lake  Northern Alberta

Download or read book Archaeological Research at Calling Lake Northern Alberta written by Ruth Gruhn and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 1980-01-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An archaeological survey of Calling Lake, situated in the mixed wood forest zone approximately 225 km north of Edmonton, found an abundance of prehistoric material at sites on the east and southeast shore. Four prehistoric campsites were excavated in three field seasons from l966 to 1968. Comparison of projectile point styles with types dated elsewhere suggest that occupation of two of the sites began in the interval 3000 to 1000 B.C. with major occupation of the other two sites starting somewhat later. Cultural affiliations appear to be with the Taltheilei tradition and earlier, with the Plains area.

Book Anahim Lake Archaeology and the Early Historic Chilcotin Indians     Vertebrate Faunal Remains from the Potlatch Site  FcSi 2  in South Central British Columbia

Download or read book Anahim Lake Archaeology and the Early Historic Chilcotin Indians Vertebrate Faunal Remains from the Potlatch Site FcSi 2 in South Central British Columbia written by Roscoe Hall Wilmeth and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 1978-01-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excavation of a number of pit house sites at Anahim Lake in the central plateau of British Columbia has resulted in the definition of five components, the last two attributed to the Chilcotin. There are significant resemblances between these two components and Athabaskan complexes recorded elsewhere in North America. In this second part of this publication, analysis of the vertebrate remains from Potlatch site reveal much about the subsistence of the Chilcotin. Significant changes occurred in the percentage of vertebrate remains through time. Evidence of butchering and artifactual modification are discussed. Range changes of several species are of zoological interest.
