  • The Archaeology of Yukon Ice Patches

    Open AccessP Gregory Hare, Christian D Thomas et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2012

    Since 1997, more than 207 archaeological objects and 1700 faunal remains have been recovered from 43 melting ice patches in the southern Yukon. The artifacts range in age from a 9000-year-old (calendar) dart shaft to a 19th-century musket ball. This paper provides an update on Yukon ice patch research and summary data on select areas of research conducted since 2003. More than 200 radiocarbon dates have been run on ice patch archaeological and fa…

  • 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…

  • In Pursuit of Prehistoric Caribou on Thandlät, Southern Yukon

    Open AccessGerald W Kuzyk, Donald E Russell et al.ARTICLEARCTIC1999

    In 1997, the first author noted a large concentration of caribou (Rangifer sp.) fecal pellets and a caribou antler on a permanent snow patch in the Kusawa Lake area of southern Yukon. Caribou are completely absent from this area today. Coring of the snow patch revealed continuous deposits of fecal pellets to depths of at least 160 cm. The proximal portion of a wooden dart or arrow shaft fragment recovered on the edge of the snow patch represents …
