Sex determination of baleen whale artefacts: Implications for ancient DNA use in zooarchaeology
The genetic prehistory of the New World Arctic
Arctic genetics comes in from the cold Despite a well-characterized archaeological record, the genetics of the people who inhabit the Arctic have been unexplored. Raghavan et al. sequenced ancient and modern genomes of individuals from the North American Arctic (see the Perspective by Park). Analyses of these genomes indicate that the Arctic was colonized 6000 years ago by a migration separate from the one that gave rise to other Native American …
Archaeological Commentary on the Isotopic Study of the Greenland Thule Culture
An archaeological commentary is given on the results of the first isotopic study of the Greenland Thule culture. To test the isotopic data derived from human remains from the graves, comparative archaeological data of the faunal and artifactual material from the sites are presented. To make the two data sets comparable, the faunal material are presented in NISP and the artifactual material are presented as technounits. The three data sets given, …

Cultural encounters at Cape Farewell: The East Greenlandic immigrants and the German Moravian Mission in the 19th century
This volume offers a comprehensive account of the cultural history of the Cape Farewell area in the 19th century. The dominating factor in this history was the immigration of people to the area from Southeast Greenland. There are no written sources originating from these immigrants, as they could neither read nor write, so the descriptions presented of the immigration are primarily based on material from the Danish colonial authorities and the Ge…
At the edge: High Arctic Walrus hunters during the Little Ice Age
A multi-disciplinary study of settlement in north-east Greenland found that life in this High Arctic zone was actually favoured by the climate brought in by the Little Ice Age (fifteenth-nineteenth century). Extensive ice cover meant high mobility, and the rare polynyas - small patches of permanently open coastal water - provided destinations, like oases, where huge numbers of migrating marine mammals and birds congregated. One such place was Wal…

The Nature of Contact between Native Greenlanders and Norse
Recent archaeology has introduced a new people into the scenario of 13th-century Greenland – the Dorset people of the Paleo-Eskimo tradition. These people were encountered by Norse hunters who travelled northwards on their hunting forays, as described in Historia Norvegiae, which recounts contact with the so-called Skrælíngja. The question of who these Skrælíngja were has been discussed since the discovery of the source in the late 19th century. …
From Middle Ages to Colonial Times. Archaeological and ethnohistorical studies of the Thule culture in South West Greenland 1300–1800 AD
In the following chapters I present the archaeological, the written and the oral sources which form the basis of ethnohistory in South West Greenland. The background to the Thule culture there is then discussed on the basis of the available archaeological source material from Greenland and my choice of source-types is defended. An interpretation of these sources emphasizes the cultural tradition which lies behind the Thule culture in South West G…

Anthropology in the Arctic: A Critique of Racial Typology and Normative Theory [and Comments and Reply]
The study of prehistory in the North American Arctic suffers from epistemological problems that have been resolved by scholars in other areas. The predominance of normative theory and racial typology as the foundations of Arctic anthropology has confined research in large part to the pursuit of racial and cultural histories and seriously inhibited the generation of hypotheses that address questions of process in either cultural or biological adap…
Recent Trends and Issues in the Political Development of Greenland
The voting patterns in Greenland from 1971 are studied. The two current issues discussed are Home Rule and mineral and oil resources
Eskimokultur, arkæologi og museumssamlinger
Eskimo culture, archaeology and collections At the turn of this century, uncontrolled collecting of Eskimo objects by Europeans became a threat to the Greenlandic culture. «Damaging the Eskimo culture by spoiling heathen graves». That was the opinion expressed by members of the political board of South Greenland. A proposal was then made for building a museum which was realized more than half a century later
