On Common Ground: Nunavik Inuit in Nunatsiavut, 1763–1942
“On Common Ground” presents findings of research commissioned by Makivik Corporation in support of Nunavik Inuit claims to rights and interests in neighbouring Nunatsiavut, claims recognized in the 2006 Nunavik Inuit Land Claim Agreement. The original study ex-amined Nunavimmiut patterns of use and occupation in Labrador during the pre- and post-contact eras. Here, the scope is limited to the period after 1763 and focuses on an area spanning east…
Isolation and Community Resettlement: A Labrador Example
The social conception of isolation in hinterland communities is seen as a manifestation of economic and political dependency, and not merely as a function of physical remoteness. This paper examines how isolation influences local decision-making about population resettlement as a strategy of community development. Based on data from a small Labrador village, the study considers how isolation has been experienced over time, and how it affects the …
An Anthropologist’s Apprenticeship: Diamond Jenness’ Papuan and Arctic Fieldwork
Diamond Jenness (1886-1969) was a major figure in Canadian anthropology during the first half of the century. This paper provides some biographical-historical details of his early career, concentrating on major fieldwork in Papua New Guinea in 1912, and in northern Alaska and Canada’s Coronation Gulf region between 1913 and 1916. Relying mainly on Jenness’ unpublished field diaries and personal correspondence, it identifies links between his work…
Frederick W. Waugh (1872–1924)
Largely forgotten today, especially in the annals of northern science, Frederick Wilkerson Waugh was one of the very few Canadians to bridge the gap between amateur and professional anthropology during the discipline’s transitional period in the early 20th century. Waugh was a self-taught ethnologist and natural historian, and his career with the Anthropological Division of the Geological Survey of Canada, founded in 1910, lasted a mere 11 years.…

Politics, Bureaucracy, and Arctic Archaeology in Canada, 1910-39
Until the post-World War II period most of Canada's professional archaeologists and ethnologists were attached to the Anthropological Division of the National Museum in Ottawa, originally founded in 1910 as a branch of the Geological Survey. As they were federal employees, their scientific work was largely dependent on, and ultimately limited by, what politicians and senior bureaucrats deemed to be in the public interest. This paper considers som…

Diamond Jenness and the National Museum of Canada: 1930–1947
Diamond Jenness (1886–1969), New Zealand born and Oxford educated, is best known in anthropology for his detailed studies of Canadian Inuit and Indian societies and cultures. He published numerous reports and papers and the ground‐breaking The Indians of Canada (1932), a classic of North American ethnology. Less well known is his service (1926–1930, 1937–1947) as chief of the Anthropological Division of the National Museum of Canada (NMC), where …
Very Serious Reflections: Inuit Dreams about Salvation and Loss in Eighteenth-Century Labrador
Labrador Inuit were systematically exposed to Christianity for the first time when Moravian Brethren settled among them in the late eighteenth century. This was a period of crisis in aboriginal life caused by the combined effects of the missionaries' campaign to win souls and the socioeconomic changes arising from nearly two centuries of contact with Europeans. Contemporary mission journals contain accounts of dreams related by early proselytes, …
