  • Ancient Southwest U.S. Seed Caches

    Vandy E Bowyer, Karen R AdamsARTICLEKIVA2019Referencias: 10

    Relatively rare concentrations of ancient plant remains as caches and other forms of storage can provide important insights regarding many aspects of life not revealed by the typical archaeobotanical record. Before making archaeological interpretations it is important to determine if the source of an ancient plant concentration is the result of human storage and caching (cultural) or non-human animal nesting and caching (natural) activities, or a…

  • Diet and Habitat of Mountain Woodland Caribou Inferred from Dung Preserved in 5000-year-old Alpine Ice in the Selwyn Mountains, Northwest Territories, Canada

    Open AccessJennifer M Galloway, Jan Adamczewski et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2012

    Alpine ice patches are unique repositories of cryogenically preserved archaeological artefacts and biological specimens. Recent melting of ice in the Selwyn Mountains, Northwest Territories, Canada, has exposed layers of dung accumulated during seasonal use of ice patches by mountain woodland caribou of the ancestral Redstone population over the past ca. 5250 years. Although attempts to isolate the DNA of known caribou parasites were unsuccessful…

  • Multidisciplinary Investigations of Alpine Ice Patches in Southwest Yukon, Canada

    Open AccessRichard Farnell, P Gregory Hare et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2004

    Since the discovery of dung-rich alpine ice patches in southwest Yukon in 1997, continuing multidisciplinary studies have provided a unique window on the biology, climate, and hunting activity in this region over much of the Holocene. Aerial surveys have identified 72 ice patches of variable size, and 65 patches have been ground-surveyed for organic remains. Of these, 35 yielded an abundance of biological specimens, including caribou and other ra…

  • Ethnographic and Archaeological Investigations of Alpine Ice Patches in Southwest Yukon, Canada

    Open AccessP Gregory Hare, Sheila Greer et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2004

    Since the original 1997 discovery of ancient hunting implements in melting alpine ice patches of southern Yukon, approximately 146 well-preserved, organic artifacts have been recovered. Most of the artifacts, variously made of antler, bone, wood, and stone, represent complete or partial examples of throwing-dart (atlatl) and bow-and-arrow technology. Radiocarbon dates obtained thus far range from 8360 BP to 90 BP (uncalibrated). Our research indi…

  • Dating the Entry of Corn (Zea Mays) into the Lower Great Lakes Region

    Open AccessGary W Crawford, David Smith et al.ARTICLEAmerican Antiquity1997Citada por: 33Referencias: 21

    Five accelerator mass spectrometer (AMS) dates on corn (maize or Zea mays) from the Grand Banks site, Ontario, range from cal A.D. 540 to 1030. These are the earliest directly dated corn samples in the Lower Great Lakes region. The presence of corn during the Princess Point Complex, a transitional Late Woodland phase preceding the Ontario Iroquoian Tradition, is confirmed as is an early presence of the Princess Point culture in Ontario. Maize app…
