Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ethnoarcheology of Crow Village, Alaska In Arctic and subarctic America, where the aboriginal lifeways of Indians and Eskimos frequently have endured into the present century, historical archeology rarely has been of primary interest to either the ethnographer or the archeologist. In an area such as western Green land, where there was sustained contact between Europeans and Eskimos, an exception is to be found. Northern Canadian historical archeology has been unsystematic, while in Alaska only along Prince William Sound (de Laguna, 1956; the Gulf of Alaska (acker man, and the lower Copper River (vanstone, 1955) have excavations been made at historic sites. In the Arctic and subarctic of America archeologists have yet to fathom the ramifications of many cultural continuities within the Christian Era, while the path of early man into the New World is still largely unknown. With fascinating problems such as these confronting them, it is not surprising that the archeologists have avoided sites containing tin cans, bottle glass, and crockery. Yet it is precisely these and other forms of trade goods in the context of a rapidly changing sociocultural setting that directed our attention to historical archeology in Alaska.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because some classes of people may not have been considered worthy of notice by dominant social groups in the past, they may be less visible to us today in historical and archaeological records; consequently, they remain less studied. This volume attempts to redress this oversight by presenting case studies of historical and archaeological research on various ethnic, racial, gender, and socioeconomic groups in colonial and post-colonial North America. These contributions illustrate how historical archaeologists and ethnohistorians have used documentary and archaeological evidence to retrieve information on neglected aspects of American history. They explore ways of making more visible Native Americans, African Americans, and Euro-Americans of differing ethnic groups and economic classes, and also shed new light on such groups as celibate religious communities, women in predominantly male communities, and working-class and middle-class women in urban communities. Material evidence on "those of little note" provides not only fresh insight into our understanding of daily life in the past, but also a refreshing counterpoint to the male- and Euro-centered analysis that has characterized much of historical archaeology since its inception. Readers will find many chapters rewarding in their application of sophisticated feminist theory to archaeological data, or in their probing of complex relational issues concerning the construction of gender identity and gender relationships. As the first archeaeologically-focused collection to examine the interconnectedness of gender, class, race, and ethnicity in past societies, Those of Little Note sets new standards for future research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People are often able to identify change agents. They can estimate possible economic and social transitions, and they are often in an economic or social position to make calculated—sometimes risky—choices. Exploring this dynamic, A Tale of Three Villages is an investigation of culture change among the Yup’ik Eskimo people of the southwestern Alaskan coast from just prior to the time of Russian and Euro-North American contact to the mid-twentieth century. Liam Frink focuses on three indigenous-colonial events along the southwestern Alaskan coast: the late precolonial end of warfare and raiding, the commodification of subsistence that followed, and, finally, the engagement with institutional religion. Frink’s innovative interdisciplinary methodology respectfully and creatively investigates the spatial and material past, using archaeological, ethnoecological, and archival sources. The author’s narrative journey tracks the histories of three villages ancestrally linked to Chevak, a contemporary Alaskan Native community: Qavinaq, a prehistoric village at the precipice of colonial interactions and devastated by regional warfare; Kashunak, where people lived during the infancy and growth of the commercial market and colonial religion; and Old Chevak, a briefly occupied “stepping-stone” village inhabited just prior to modern Chevak. The archaeological spatial data from the sites are blended with ethnohistoric documents, local oral histories, eyewitness accounts of people who lived at two of the villages, and Frink’s nearly two decades of participant-observation in the region. Frink provides a model for work that examines interfaces among indigenous women and men, old and young, demonstrating that it is as important as understanding their interactions with colonizers. He demonstrates that in order to understand colonial history, we must actively incorporate indigenous people as actors, not merely as reactors.
