The Far North
Matthew Williams Stirling 1896–1975
Stirling's bibliography, of 126 titles, appears with Michael D. Coe's obituary in the January 1976 issue of American Antiquity (Vol. 41, No. 1, pp. 67–73
Composite Masks
Of all prehistoric Eskimo cultures Ipiutak is the one with closest ties to the Old World. Its antler and ivory arrowheads, lances, daggers and knives with inset stone side blades have close analogies in early Neolithic and Mesolithic cultures of Siberia and western Europe; and its flint industry, like that of the older Near Ipiutak, was an outgrowth of the microlithic Denbigh Flint complex of the Arctic Small Tool tradition which, ultimately of A…
Diamond Jenness (1886-1969)
Canada's most distinguished anthropologist, Dr. Diamond Jenness, formerly Chief of the Division of Anthropology, National Museums of Canada, and Honorary Associate of the Arctic Institute of North America, died peacefully at his home in the Gatineau Hills near Ottawa on 29 November, 1969. He was one of that rapidly-vanishing, virtually extinct kind - the all round anthropologist, who, working seriously, turned out first-class publications in all …
Karl Marx and the British Labour Movement
James Louis Giddings (1909-1964)
In the tragic death of Dr. J. L. Giddings on December 9, 1964 from a heart attack following an automobile accident, Arctic archaeology has lost one of its ablest, most brilliant and most productive workers. Born in Caldwell, Texas, April 10, 1909, Louis Giddings studied at Rice University, received his B.S. degree at the University of Alaska in 1932, M.A. at the University of Arizona, 1941, and Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania in 1951. Fro…
Karl Marx, the International and the British Trade Union Movement
Socialism and Affluence
harry hanson’s arguments (“Socialism And Affluence”, NLR 5) are remarkably like those of Tony Gosland in the October issue of Encounter, though his conclusions are quite different. Unfortunately, while Crosland’s conclusions follow logically from his analysis, Hanson’s are so loosely attached to the body of his argument
The First International
Archaeological Research in the North American Arctic
Contains a brief discussion of archeological research in this area since the first systematic work in 1927; the relationship of the various Eskimo and pre-Eskimo cultures; connections with Siberian finds; reconstruction of cultural stages and sequences and their development into present-day patterns (shown on a chart); discussion of problems to be solved, etc
The Position of Ipiutak in Eskimo Culture —Reply
The greater part of Larsen's paper is a restatement of the Ipiutak theory rather than a reply to my two specific criticisms. I feel that this theory is based on a series of questionable assumptions rather than facts, but as Larsen properly insists on “sound scientific documentation and not mere statements” I will not attempt to discuss the theory as a whole in the space available here but refer to a recent publication which gives my views (Collin…
Recent Developments in the Dorset Culture Area
The Dorset culture was first recognized and described by Jenness (1925), on the basis of materials in the National Museum of Canada that had been excavated by Eskimos at Cape Dorset on Hudson Strait and on Coats Island in Hudson Bay. Since then Dorset material has been found at many sites in the eastern Arctic from Newfoundland in the south, along the coasts of Labrador and the northern Canadian islands to Inglefield Land in Northwest Greenland. …
Radiocarbon Dating in the Arctic
Radiocarbon dates for the Arctic thus far determined by Arnold and Libby represent four time levels. The latest dates are for the Eskimo period. These are derived from wood samples from five sites in northern and northwestern Alaska ranging in age from 912 ± 170 (Ipiutak) to 2258 ± 230 years (Okvik). Johnson's site in Yukon Territory, Canada, dated at 1519±150 years, would also fall within this period if the assigned date is correct; however, the…

low-lying tundra or of steep dark-colored cliffs of broken-down granite. The island is largely of volcanic origin, with an occasional symmetrical cone visible in the interior (see Fig. 3). Some of the peaks and plateaus in the central and eastern sections reach a height of I500 feet or more; at the western end the highest elevations are along the coasts, with intervening stretches of low marshy tundra and numerous lakes and lagoons. For six month…
