Climatic significance of the marginalization of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.)c. 2500 BC at White Moss, south Cheshire, UK
Subfossil wood from White Moss, south Cheshire, has become the focus of palaeoenvironmental research employing not only conventional coring, pollen analysis, radiocarbon dating and dendrochronology on pine and oak, but also the exhumation of in situ peat areas and dendroecology of the pine ring-width records. Initial dendrochronological research at the site yielded five pine chronologies dating from 3520 to 2462 cal. bc. These and other data indi…

Fluvial Sedimentation in Response to Postglacial Uplift and Environmental Change, Missisquoi River, Vermont
Three lithologically distinct alluvial units of Holocene age can be distinguished along trenched cross sections of the Missisquoi valley bottom. The oldest is of early Holocene age, and the associated floodplain had aggraded to nearly its present level by 8000 14 C yr B.P. At that time, early Archaic projectile points were deposited in a fire hearth 50 cm below the surface. Abandonment of this floodplain was followed by the development of an A-E-…
Spirit of the New England Tribes
The Fur Trade, Indian Land and the Need to Define Adequate "Environmental" Parameters
There is an interpretation repeated frequently in historical studies of Northeastern Indian-White relations which emphasizes native over-exploitation of fur-bearing species and the encroachment of Europeans onto Indian horticultural lands as prime factors in the disintegration of Native American cultures. Was over-exploitation that significant in the collapse of the Indian-European trade? Was the incorporation of native lands into colonial towns …

Contrastive Subsistence Strategies and Land Use as Factors for Understanding Indian-White Relations in New England
During the seventeenth century, European colonists employed many arguments to rationalize the dispossession of the Indians in New England. One such contention maintained that the native populations failed to improve their land [in a European manner] and, therefore, the settlers should have fair claim to this unused territory. Was this actually the case? What were the exploitation strategies employed by both cultures? Were they complementary or co…
