If Not Us – Who? If Not Now – When
MarteSpangen's keynote articulated many of my own sentiments.The 'wickedness' of our contemporary times can indeed feel overwhelming, and the urge for archaeology to make a difference, to truly matter, has rarely been greater.Diverse perspectives, Spangen points out, are essential for tackling wicked problems.However, one issue is that populists are looking for simple solutions.How are we to remain relevant in a society that is reduced to simple …
Buckquoy, Orkney
An increase in knowledge is usually beneficial but can also highlight misapprehensions of existing data. Such is the case for the Pictish-Norse transition in Northern Scotland in the later first millennium AD. New radiocarbon dates from the key ‘transitional’ settlement of Buckquoy, Orkney, reveal that traits previously published as indicative of incoming Norse influence pre-date the start of the Viking Age, suggesting a greater level of endogeno…
Nunalleq Digital Museum
Digital technology facilitates remote access to archaeological collections and offers an accessible platform for knowledge sharing and innovative storytelling. Here, the authors present a newly developed online museum resource co-curated by archaeologists and the descendant community in Quinhagak, Alaska
A Comparative Study of Norse Palaeodemography in the North Atlantic
Our core aim is to compare the population dynamics of homeland and diaspora Norse communities in the North Atlantic through the lens of preadult representation. Our approach is to use the D0/14 palaeodemographic index to compare and contrast data sourced from twenty-one archaeological sites in the North Atlantic, including Scandinavia, Scotland, Ireland, Iceland, and Greenland that represent both homeland and frontier Norse communities including …
Giving the Past a Future
Initiated by the descendant community of Quinhagak and endorsed by village Elders, the Nunalleq Archaeology Project was unique for Yup’ik Alaska when it began in 2009. Since then, this embedded community project has provided the village with over a decade of archaeological presence in the form of excavations, finds processing, conservation lab work, and, since 2018, a local repository housing the entire archaeological collection. Accounts of coll…
Nalaquq (“it is found”)
In 2007, the Yup’ik village of Quinhagak contacted archaeologists after locals found precontact artifacts on a nearby beach. This collaboration led to the subsequent excavation of Nunalleq, an important ancestral site threatened by climate change. Since then, an international research team has partnered with Yup’ik leadership in Quinhagak to address the larger impact of climate change. In turn, this article introduces Nalaquq—our framework for co…

Vikings, Rus, Varangians
The Scandinavian activity in Russia during the Viking Age has left traces in both the archaeological and the written material. In the 13th century Russian annals, "The Primary Chronicle", a story is told ofhow "Varangians from beyond the sea" founded the first Russian realm. The Varangians have been interpreted as Scandinavians, and the archaeological material has been connected with this story. This has resulted in a scientific debate, which in …
Nunalleq, Stories from the Village of Our Ancestors
In 2017, the Nunalleq Project initiated the co-design of a digital educational resource for schoolchildren in the Yukon-Kuskokwim region that curates the story of the archaeological excavations in a way which engages with Yup’ik ways of knowing and traditional oral storytelling. Here, we present an account of an archaeological outreach project which creatively unites science and history with traditional knowledge and contemporary engagements. Co-…
Activity Areas or Conflict Episode? Interpreting the Spatial Patterning of Lice and Fleas at the Precontact Yup'ik Site of Nunalleq (Sixteenth to Seventeenth Centuries AD, Alaska)
Archaeoentomological research at the precontact site of Nunalleq (sixteenth and seventeenth centuries AD), Southwest Alaska, has identified hundreds of lice and fleas that infested both the human inhabitants of the site and their canine companions. As lice are host specific, staying attached to the host's hair or fur during the totality of their lifecycle, they are generally considered excellent indicators of activity areas. Fleas, however, are r…
Archaeologies of Climate Change
Climate change is the biggest challenge facing humanity today, and discussions of its effects-from habitat loss to psychological impacts-can be found in most academic disciplines. Among the many casualties of contemporary climatic change is the archaeological heritage of Arctic and subarctic regions, as warming, erratic weather patterns, coastal erosion, and melting permafrost threaten the anthropogenic and ecological records found in northern en…
Nunalleq
In this paper, we present an overview of the most recent results of the ongoing research on the Nunalleq site in Southwestern Alaska, a late pre-contact Yupik settlement. This endeavor is a long-term project that has taken place in the context of the threat that the combined effects of climate change poses to archaeological heritage in the sub-Arctic. Recent climate-change research highlights local involvement and monitoring as the way forward, a…
Three Generations Under One Roof? Bayesian Modeling of Radiocarbon Data From Nunalleq, Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska
This article presents the results of a program of radiocarbon dating and Bayesian modeling from the precontact Yup'ik site of Nunalleq (GDN-248) in subarctic southwestern Alaska. Nunalleq is deeply stratified, presenting a robust relative chronological framework of well-defined individual house floors abundant in ecofacts suitable for radiocarbon dating. Capitalizing on this potential, we present the results of one of the first applications of Ba…

Archaeologies of “Us” and “Them”
This chapter explores some ways in which mining companies mobilize corporate heritage discourse to position themselves as stakeholders and knowledge producers, and in some contexts are redefining heritage as a resource. It argues that the implications of these new literary corporate forms are many and heritage scholars should pay attention to them. Corporate bodies have for some time developed initiatives to legitimize activities or demonstrate a…
Archaeologies of "Us" and "Them
Archaeologies of 'Us' and 'Them' explores the concept of indigeneity within the field of archaeology and heritage and in particular examines the shifts in power that occur when 'we' define 'the other' by categorizing 'them' as indigenous. Recognizing the complex and shifting distinctions between indigenous and non-indigenous pasts and presents, this volume gives a nuanced analysis of the underlying definitions, concepts and ethics associated with…
Maritime adaptations and dietary variation in prehistoric Western Alaska
The reconstruction of diet and subsistence strategies is integral in understanding early human colonizations and cultural adaptations, especially in the Arctic—one of the last areas of North America to be permanently inhabited. However, evidence for early subsistence practices in Western Alaska varies, particularly with regards to the emergence, importance, and intensity of sea mammal hunting. Here, we present stable carbon and nitrogen isotope d…
