The origin of smectite in the soil of the Kruger 2 archaeological site, Brompton (Québec), Canada
Kruger 2 is unique among Late Paleoindian sites of eastern Canada because of the presence of a potential hearth (feature #1) characterized by a concentration of blackened fire‐cracked rock and burnt bone embedded in a thick Ae horizon. Comparative mineralogical analysis (X‐ray diffraction) of Ae samples collected inside and outside the feature reveal the absence of calcite and apatite, two minerals commonly found in ashes, and the presence of sme…
Cascades 5, une composante de la tradition de l’Archaïque du Golfe du Maine à East Angus, Estrie, Québec
La vallée de la rivière Saint-François a été occupée depuis au moins 10 000 ans avant aujourd’hui par des chasseurs de la culture Plano, et le site Cascades 5 contribue à combler un hiatus culturel important entre 8000 et 10 000 ans avant aujourd’hui avec une occupation associée à l’Archaïque ancien. L’enfouissement des vestiges exigeait une lecture pédologique pour confirmer la présence d’un horizon enfoui. Le matériel archéologique présente de …
Chemical and Mineralogical Signatures of Archaeological Features at the Mailhot‐Curran Iroquoian Site, Eastern Canada
The St. Lawrence Iroquoians built villages in southwestern Quebec (Canada) along the St. Lawrence River. They left behind longhouses, hearths, middens, and storage pits like those discovered at the Mailhot‐Curran archaeological site in Saint‐Anicet. Here, we contrast the properties of Iroquoian features with undisturbed soil to define the chemical and mineralogical signature of hearths, middens, and pits. The native soil has a neutral pH and cons…
