Transfer-Printed Gastroliths
A Mongrel Crowd of Canadians, Kanakas and Indians
Fort Vancouver, on the lower Columbia River, contains the remains of the Hudson's Bay Company's western fur trading operations. This article highlights a long-term public archaeology and museum collections programme tied to the Fort Vancouver Village. Public archaeology has developed new understanding and interpretation of the villagers’ lives, while correcting public misconceptions regarding the site's history, significance, and location. Nation…

Dossier « Le champ des commons en question
The European Union has declared its intention to move in the direction of an ecosystem approach to fisheries management. Their experience with the management of multi-species, mixed fisheries (MSMF) is one area where insight can be gained about what this may mean in practice. The present paper draws on extensive discussions with stakeholders and the observation of a number of fisheries management related meetings to outline the main challenges th…

Examining the Two Cultures Theory of Fisheries Knowledge
Many accounts of fisheries knowledge have relied on a general contrast between fishers' knowledge and scientists' knowledge. This "two cultures" theory suggests that both training and experience lead fishers and scientists to think in systematically different ways about fish and that resulting breakdowns in communications are a primary reason for management failures. The article traces seven disputes over bluefish science and argues that institut…
The Implications for Participatory Fisheries Management of Intensified Commercialization on Lake Victoria
Participation by stakeholders in fisheries management has become widely accepted. It is held that it increases both the effectiveness and the legitimacy of management. Many empirical studies of fisheries management, however, have found that political struggles over the profits from fishing drive management decisions. The present paper looks to sociological debates about agency, structure, and embeddedness for guidance in theorizing about the soci…

Identification and assessment of secondary refuse aggregates
The Archaeology of Contemporary Landfills
The Garbage Project has excavated eight sanitary landfulls from California to Florida and analyzed 6.71 metric tons of refuse deposited between 1952 and 1988. While the ultimate goal of this continuing endeavor is to collect archaeological data on contemporary discards using a methodology that will link our society to the past, this initial report relates Garbage Project data to three issues of current public concern. This first applied archaeolo…

The Western Abenakis of Vermont, 1600-1800
Web of Secrecy
DURING most of the nineteenth century, one of the hardiest blossoms in the flowering of New England's story was the often-told account of the Angel of Hadley, who dramatically appeared in the Massachusetts frontier village in the 1670s, during King Philip's War. No report of the episode was published until nearly ninety years later, when it was related by Thomas Hutchinson, then lieutenant governor of the Bay Colony, in a footnote to The History …
