Download or read book The Indians of Quetico written by Emerson S. Coatsworth and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1957-12-15 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating picture of the industrious life of the Ojibwa before the coming of the white man. The Indians lived in an intimate relationship with the forest and the spiritual forces they found in nature. They were completely dependent on wild game, trees, and plants for their food, their clothing, and their dwellings, and they realized that it was in their best interest to protect these things, to ensure their livelihood year after year and for the generations to come. The author traces the outlines of this Indian civilization—the Ojibwa's social organization, family life, the quest for food, their handicrafts, and the world of the supernatural with which they lived in such intimacy. The result is an authoritative and entertaining account. The book contains 8 photographs, 25 line drawings and two-colour end-paper map.
Download or read book Precambrian Geology of the Atikokan Area Northwestern Ontario written by Denver Stone and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eye-Dashwa pluton is among the youngest major intrusions in the Atikokan area and is compositionally zoned from a quartz monzodiorite rim to a granite core. This report provides the regional geological setting of the Eye-Dashwa pluton by defining geological boundaries as well as mineralogical, petrological, and geochemical characteristics of the pluton and neighbouring lithological units. Major structural fractures and metamorphic conditions are discussed, and using isotopic age data, the geological events affecting the Archean crust in the area is examined. Certain unresolved problems in Archean geology of the area are identified.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summarises results of Precambrian mapping conducted in a study area covering about 200 square kilometres and located about 110 kilometres west of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Includes a summary of the area's mineral exploration history, descriptions of the area's general geology, rock types, metamorphism, igneous rock geochemistry, structural geology, and economic geology. Base and precious metal occurrences are described, as represented by three major styles of mineralisation in the study area: stratigraphically controlled, intrusion hosted, and shear/quartz vein hosted.

Download or read book Indian Rock Paintings of the Great Lakes written by Selwyn Dewdney and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1962-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes in word and illustration the results of an exciting quest on the part of its authors to discover and record Indian rock paintings of Northern Ontario and Minnesota. Numerous drawings were made from these pictographs at a hundred different sites; the originals range in age from four to five hundred years to a thousand, and were done with the simplest materials: fingers for brushes, fine clay impregnated with ferrous oxide giving the characteristic red paint. Where an overhanging rock protected a vertical face from dripping water or on dry, naked rock faces the Indians recorded the forest life with which they lived in intimate association—deer, caribou, rabbit, heron, trout, canoes, animal tracks—and also abstractions which puzzle and intrigue the modern viewer. Many of the paintings could only have been done from a canoe or a convenient rock ledge. Selwyn Dewdney travelled many thousands of miles by canoe to make the drawings of the pictographs which illustrate every page of this fascinating and attractive book. He provides also a general analysis of the materials used by the Indians, of their subject-matter and the artistic rendering given to it, and his artist's journal records in detail the sites he visited, the paintings he found at each, the comparisons among them that came to mind, the references to rock paintings in early literature of the Northwest. Kenneth E. Kidd contributes a valuable essay on the anthropological background of the area, linking the rock paintings with early cave art in, for example, France and Spain, describing the life of the Indians in the Shield country, and commenting on what the pictographs reveal of their makers' attitudes to their external world and of their thinking. This is a book which will appeal to a wide audience: to those interested in primitive art forms and in Canadian art in general, to all students of the early history of North America, to travellers who in increasing numbers follow the canoe trails of the Shield lakes and rivers.

The book is divided into seven regions, and sites are listed under county, district, or municipality. Entries contain instructions on how to reach sites, descriptions of the major landscape and habitat features, information about typical as well as important or unusual animals and plants to be found at the site, and an address to contact for more information. Introductory chapters give an overview of Ontario's natural history and its rich and diverse plant and animal life. The book also discusses environmental concerns, offers tips on how to get the most out of an outing, and lists the 'top ten' nature sites in Ontario. There are lists of useful addresses and references, a site index, and an extensive glossary. This volume is a project of the Federation of Ontario Naturalists, whose affiliates and individual members have contributed to the book. A Nature Guide to Ontario, an invaluable reference for all who want to experience and enjoy the best of Ontario's natural areas and wildernesses.
