Japan's World War II on Kiska Island: Previously Undocumented Features on the Vega Bay Coastline
The Japanese occupation of Kiska Island in the Western Aleutians was far more comprehensive than previously reported or archaeologically documented. Remarkably wellpreserved World War II Japanese military tunnels, entrenchments, structural remains, and communications networks are located throughout the southern coastal bays and coves of the island. These features were constructed in 1942–1943 by Imperial Japanese Army and Imperial Japanese Navy t…
Ethno-ornithology in the Rat Islands: Prehistoric Aleut relationships with birds in the western Aleutians, Alaska
Avifauna discard packages and bone damage resulting from human consumption processes
Anthropology in the Aleutians: Introductory Comments
Anthropology in the Aleutians: Introductory Comments Debra Corbett and Caroline Funk Anthropological research in the Aleutians tends to be patchy in time and space. An apparent wealth of information becomes, on closer inspection, snippets of datasets separated by gaps. Decades may separate the various ethnohistorical, ethnographic, linguistic, cultural, or physical anthropology studies, and archaeological projects. Hundreds of kilometers stretch …
Rat Islands Archaeological Research 2003 and 2009: Working toward an Understanding of Regional Cultural, and Environmental Histories
Aleuts occupied the islands of the Rat Island group for at least 6,000 years. Previous archaeological studies unevenly targeted Amchitka Island and highly visible coastal sites on Kiska and Rat Islands, skewing perceptions about the use of landscapes, seascapes, and resources by the Aleut of the Rat Islands. Test excavations on Rat Island in 2003 and survey and testing during the 2009 Rats and Birds Project demonstrate the complexity and ubiquity…
Developing the artist-leader
Our leaders are challenged to lead in a world of increasing ambiguity and complexity, to make sense and to take effective action. The field of organization studies has developed a growing interest in ‘aesthetics’ in part as a response to such unprecedented conditions. From this perspective leaders require a new capacity comprised of aesthetic judgment, a perceptual stance and an ability to create plausible narratives of the world. The exercise of…
Coastal wetlands and the Neanderthal settlement of Portuguese Estremadura
Coastal wetlands are ecotone settings that offer diverse sets of resources for human exploitation, yet evidence for Pleistocene occupation rarely preserves due to recent postglacial sea‐level rise. During an ongoing geoarchaeological survey of Portuguese Estremadura we identified uplifted Pleistocene sediments that record coastal features including raised beaches, tidal channels, muds, peat, and coastal dunes. Stratified concentrations of Middle …
The Bow and Arrow War Days on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta of Alaska
Yupiit living along the Bering Sea coast south of the mouth of the Yukon River regularly engaged in violent conflict with more northern riverine Yupiit prior to the 1840s AD arrival of Russian explorers and traders. The conflict is known as the Bow and Arrow War Days, and outside Alaska few people are aware of it. Local oral histories tell of the war, and archaeological and historical sources provide complementary details. This article documents …
