A model of the origins and development of Aleut
It has long been thought that Unangam Tunuu (Aleut) must have undergone substantial language contact at some point, given its divergent lexicon, features seemingly shared with Dene languages, and a single feature shared with Eyak, Tlingit, and Haida. To date, however, the nature of prehistoric language contact event(s) has remained unclear. Collaboration between the authors has resulted in a cohesive model of language contact mechanisms, together…
Late Quaternary (≥MIS 3 to MIS 1) stratigraphic transitions in a highland Beringian landscape along the Kuskokwim River, Alaska
Stratigraphic records extending to Marine Oxygen Isotope Stage (MIS) 3 (57,000–29,000 cal yr BP) or older in Beringia are extremely rare. Three stratigraphic sections in interior western Alaska show near continuous sedimentological and environmental progressions extending from at least MIS 3, if not older, through MIS 1 (14,000 cal yr BP–present). The Kolmakof, Sue Creek, and VABM (vertical angle bench mark) Kuskokwim sections along the central K…
Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea: Maritime Archaeology
Yukon First Nation use of Copper for End-Blades on Hunting Arrows
Copper metallurgy and bow and arrow technology are widely considered hallmark traits of the Late Prehistoric Period in the northwest of North America (Yukon and Alaska). In recent years, a number of osseous arrow points have been recovered from melting alpine ice patches in the northwest, some with evidence of copper utilization. This article reports on the construction and radiocarbon dating of three osseous arrowheads recovered from Yukon-Alask…

Rediscovering lost relationships: Canadian Arctic ethnographic materials recovered from the ‘ghost ship’ Baychimo and the University of Alaska Museum of the North
In 1931, the Hudson's Bay Company cargo steamer, SS Baychimo , was trapped in sea ice and abandoned in the Chukchi Sea off the northern coast of Alaska. Large amounts of scientific and navigational instruments and gear and personal items were left aboard, among them an ethnographic collection gathered in 1930 from Inuit groups in the Canadian Arctic by Richard Sterling Finnie. The ship was boarded several times over the next three years with item…
Architecture and Complex Hearth Features at the Amaknak Bridge Site, Eastern Aleutian Islands, Alaska
During excavations at the Amaknak Bridge site (Unalaska Island, Eastern Aleutian Islands, ca. 2500–3600 B.P.) between 1977 and 2007, portions of 30 to 40 semi-subterranean structures lined with stone were unearthed. Many of these houses were fragmentary, having been eroded or truncated by later construction, but approximately 14 retained substantial structural integrity. Most contained complex hearth features consisting of fireplaces, vents, and …
A Whalebone Mask from Amaknak Island, Eastern Aleutian Islands, Alaska
In August 2007, a whalebone mask was excavated from a 3,000-year-old settlement site in the eastern Aleutian Islands, Alaska. Although wooden masks are ethnographically common and well-documented from most other regions of coastal Alaska, examples made from bone or other materials are quite rare. The uses and significance of prehistoric masks are difficult to ascertain. Russians, the first Europeans to visit the Aleutian Islands, recorded ritual …
In Defense of a Version of Satisficing Consequentialism
In this article, I develop, motivate, and offer a qualified defense of a version of satisficing consequentialism (SC). I develop the view primarily in light of objections to other versions of SC recently posed by Ben Bradley. I motivate the view by showing that it (1) accommodates the intuitions apparently supporting those objections, (2) is supported by certain ‘common-sense’ moral intuitions about specific cases, and (3) captures the central id…
Logboats from Bohemia and Moravia, Czech Republic: Logboats From Bohemia and Moravia, Czech Republic
More than 40 logboats are known from the Czech Republic, and at least 20 are preserved in repositories or regional museums (seven in Moravia, 13 in Bohemia). Two further vessels remain in situ. Many logboats are known from neighbouring countries, but until recently vessels from the Czech Republic have not attracted the same research interest. Only five Czech vessels (two from Bohemia and three from Moravia) have been dated by absolute methods. Se…
