Download or read book Aleutian Freighter written by James R. Mackovjak and published by Documentary Media LLC and University of Washington. This book was released on 2012 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unique among U.S. maritime cargo operations, the Aleutian trade is and has always been carried on by small break-bulk cargo vessels, through severe weather, and a grueling schedule; not an industry for the weak, timid, or foolhardy. Contained in these pages is a history of the Aleutian trade, from the sailing vessels of the 19th century that transported salted cod, to the mailboats that for decades provided the region s only scheduled communication with the outside world, to the make-do, rough-and-tumble, seafood-driven fleet expansion of the 1980s, to the small but capable fleet of today. It is a history of small ships and the people who owned and operated them, set in a severe and unforgiving environment, and framed by an evolving marine resource-based economy.

Download or read book Culture and Archaeology of the Ancestral Unangax Aleut of the Aleutian Islands Alaska written by Debra Corbett and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-03 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past 9,000 years, people lived and flourished along the 1,000-mile Aleutian archipelago reaching from the American continent nearly to Asia. The Aleutian chain and surrounding waters supported 40,000 or more people before the Russians arrived. Despite the antiquity of continuous human occupation, the size of the area, and the fascinating and complex social organization, the region has received scant notice from the public. This volume provides a thorough review describing the varied cultures of the ancestral Unangax̂, using archaeological reports, articles, and unpublished data; documented Unangax̂ oral histories, and ethnohistories from early European and American visitors, assessed through the authors’ multi-decade experience working in the Aleutian Archipelago. Unangam Tanangin ilan Unangax̂/Aliguutax̂ Maqax̂singin ama Kadaangim Tanangin Anaĝix̂taqangis (Culture and Archaeology of the Ancestral Unangax̂/Aleut of the Aleutian Islands, Alaska) begins with a description of the physical and biological world (The Physical Environment and The Living Environment) of which the Unangax̂ are part, followed by a description of the archaeological research in the region (The People). The rest of the book addresses ancestral Unangax̂ life including settlement on the land, and the characteristics of sites based on the activities that took place there (People on the Landscape). From this broad perspective, the view narrows to the people making a living through hunting, fishing, and collecting food along the shore-line, making their intricate tools, storing and cooking food, and sewing and weaving (Making a Living); household life including house construction, households, and the work done within the home (Life at Home); and the personal changes an individual goes through from the time they are born through death, including spiritual transitions and ceremonies (Transitions), and the evidence for these events in the material record. This book is written in gratitude to the Unangax̂ and Aleut people for the opportunity to work in Unangam Tanangin or the Aleutian Islands, and to learn about your culture. We hope you find this book useful. The purpose of this book is to introduce the broader public to the cultures of this North Pacific archipelago in a single source, while simultaneously providing researchers a comprehensive synthesis of archaeology in the region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aleutian Islands and Aleut Settlement, a History After the war, William S. Laughlin began a multi-year, interdisciplinary program on Umnak Island. About the same time. Bank II began surveying and testing sites all along the Aleutian chain. The late 1960s and early 1970s saw a flurry of excavation activity on Akun, Atka, and Amchitka. Since the 1970s archeological work in the Aleutians has consisted mainly of surveys and inventories of prehistoric and historic sites. Aleut adaptations, economic strategies and interactions with other organisms have received increasing attention. This thesis is an attempt to synthesize the available archeological excavation and survey data for the Near Islands, the westernmost islands of the Aleutian chain. As in most of the recent work done in the islands, an ecological framework has been adopted for the synthesis. In consequence the environment is the critical element in the discussion which follows. Without understanding the complex marine environment of the Aleuts, other, less tangible aspects of their lives, religion, politics, history, and social life will remain incomplete. Analyzing the relationship between the environment and site size and distribution, I hope to address the following questions
