Centering Inuit Women in Foreign Encounters
Knocking on a Locked Door
For over two decades, Canadian corporations have been the subject of severe allegations of human rights and environmental violations related to the forced imposition of their operations abroad. Despite the growing consensus within the literature and international governance community that Canadian corporations—especially within the extractive sector—are serial perpetrators of grave human rights violations and despite Canada’s international legal …
The Role of the Nunatsiavut Heritage Forum in the Development of Community Archaeology
The Nunatsiavut Heritage Forum, held annually since 2010 and overseen by the Nunatsiavut Government Archaeology Office, brings together people involved in heritage work from all five constituent Inuit Communities as well as interested public to discuss issues of concern and set goals to address them. It has rapidly become the primary venue for public engagement on heritage matters as well as the planning and practice of archaeology in the territo…

Archaeology, Participatory Democracy and Social Justice in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada
Memorial University, located in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, was created in 1925 to help build a better future for the people of Canada’s easternmost province, whose largely rural fishing communities were rapidly transforming through industrialization and urbanization. Mandated by a “special obligation to the people of the province,” university archaeologists embraced applied, community-based projects which encouraged local solutions to…
Diversity in Labrador Inuit sled dog diets
Sled dogs were an integral part of Labrador Inuit life from the initial expansion and settlement of northeastern Canada to the present day. Tasked with pulling sleds and assisting people with other subsistence activities in the winter, dogs required regular provisioning with protein and fat. In this paper, we conduct stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratio analysis of the skeletal remains of dogs (n = 35) and wild fauna (n = 68) from sites locat…
Archaeological Heritage as a Catalyst for Public Engagement, Rural Rejuvenation, and Rethinking Our Shared Past
A pesquisa arqueológica na província mais oriental do Canadá se beneficiou de uma longa e expansível história de parcerias com as comunidades. Tal deve-se, em parte, ao mandato excepcional da Memorial University, assim como ao engajamento forte do departamento de arqueologia em trabalhar com indivíduos e organizações locais durante escavações. A partir de três casos de estudos da província de Terra Nova e Labrador, este artigo revela as motivaçõe…
Where the wind blows us
Identity markers
Documentary evidence suggests that Inuit were present in the Strait of Belle Isle by the late 16th century, yet the archaeological evidence for Inuit settlement in southern Labrador is sparse. Inuit sites are difficult to recognize south of Nunatsiavut, where 19th-century Inuit-Métis families and seasonal Newfoundland fishers occupied settlements that leave similar archaeological surface-traces. In 2009 a SSHRC-funded Community-University Researc…
Introduction
Interpreting Long-term Trends in the Transition to Farming: Reconsidering the Nodwell Site, Ontario, Canada
Over a period of as little as 350 years the inhabitants of Bruce County, Ontario, underwent significant changes in lifestyle, from mobile hunter-gatherers living in small family units, to the development of a sedentary farming community in the village of Nodwell. This report discusses and challenges the colonisation/migration models for this transformation and instead assesses long-term processes and events taking place, changes in settlement pat…
