Cet article décrit une collaboration à long terme entre le Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq/Kitikmeot Heritage Society (PI/KHS) de Cambridge Bay, au Nunavut, et l'Université de Toronto. Cette association patrimoniale de Kitikmeot, le PI/KHS, est une organisation très active, régie par des aînés, dont les activités vont de l'histoire orale au savoir traditionnel en passant par la langue, la toponymie, les programmes scolaires et la gestion d'un musée.

"Pitquhivut Ilihaqtavut ("Learning about Our Culture)
This paper describes a long-term collaboration between the Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq/Kitikmeot Heritage Society (PI/KHS) of Cambridge Bay, Nunavut and the University of Toronto. The PI/KHS is a very active, Elder-run organization with activities ranging across oral history, traditional knowledge, language, place names, school programs, and the running of a museum. They have been collaborating with archaeologists from the University of Toronto si…

Every year 180,000 young people are recruited to join the US military. The 1973 shift from the draft to an all-volunteer recruitment model, recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq employing the use of reserve troops, wavering public support of military deployments, and stories of recruiter indiscretion have led to a renewed examination of military recruitment. Despite abundant research into motivations for military enlistment, little qualitative…
The Precontact History of Subarctic Northwest Canada
This chapter provides an overview of precontact hunter-gatherer land use in the Subarctic region of northwest Canada. The earliest evidence of human presence in this region is found in the unglaciated areas of Yukon Territory at Bluefish Caves and the Little John Site. The role of an ice-free corridor in the Mackenzie Valley in the dispersal of early peoples remains unclear. Caribou-hunting strategies are used as a theme to explore regional histo…
The Oxford Handbook of the Prehistoric Arctic
The North American Arctic was one of the last regions on Earth to be settled by humans, due to its extreme climate, limited range of resources, and remoteness from populated areas. Despite these factors, it holds a rich and complex history relating to Inuit, Iñupiat, Inuvialuit, Yupik, and Aleut peoples and their ancestors. The artifacts, dwellings, and food remains of these ancient peoples are remarkably well preserved due to cold temperatures a…
The Old Bering Sea Florescence about Bering Strait
Dependent on whaling, a series of complex, sedentary societies termed Old Bering Sea arose around Bering Strait at proximity to resource hot spots, ca. 250 B.C. to A.D. 400, thrived between A.D. 600 and 800 and with influences as late as A.D. 1300. Old Bering Sea developed adjacent to walrus haul-outs and was associated with the most elaborate aesthetic system known in the Arctic. Virtually every artifact was overlain with formalized motifs, as f…
Late Dorset
Late Dorset culture represents the final manifestation of the long-lived Paleoeskimo tradition in the eastern Arctic. Late Dorset occupied an enormous region from Victoria Island to Northern Labrador, and resettled the High Arctic, bringing them to Ellesmere Island and northwest Greenland. Alongside these expansions, long-distance exchange networks were further developed and intensified, perhaps bound together by the aggregation sites located at …
Paleoeskimo Lithic Technology
In this chapter the evolution of lithic technology during the Paleoeskimo period is explored. The diversity of lithic raw materials is considered, as well as how they have been extracted and transformed into tool blanks. This was done mainly through the production of flakes and microblades, followed by the making of a wide range of tools. The evolution from spalled burins to burin-like tools, as well as the evolution of chipped tools and microbla…
Pre-Dorset Culture
This chapter summarizes our current understanding of the widespread and diverse Pre-Dorset culture, known from the central and eastern parts of the Canadian Arctic between 4500 and 2700 B.P. The Pre-Dorset were mobile foragers, moving across the landscape to exploit seasonally available land and sea mammals in different locales, although the extent of their movements varied considerably. The lithic component of their technology has been more inte…
Conference Review
Framing Symbols and Space
Despite recent federal laws providing military recruiters unprecedented access to public schools and student information, sociologists have given scant attention to the militarization of education or the military counterrecruitment movement in the United States. Semistructured in‐depth interviews with counterrecruiters reveal five framing campaigns used to resist the armed forces' efforts to dominate the symbolic discourse in public schools: 1) t…
