Book Description
Palaeo-ecological data from central North America are synthesized in order to demonstrate the effects of the Altithermal or Atlantic Climatic Episode (circa 5500 to 3000 B.C). on vegetation. Against this environmental backdrop, Early Middle Prehistoric archaeological complexes are considered with particular attention to site setting, exploitation strategies and site distribution with comparisons to both earlier (Plano) and later (late Middle Prehistoric) complexes in the same region.

Book Description
An analysis and description of archaeological materials from two Early Middle Period sites, Gowen 1 and Gowen 2, located in south central Saskatchewan. Descriptions of the physical and biotic environments, both past and present, are provided, as are detailed descriptions of various artifact assemblages and cultural features. Comparisons with 113 other archaeological sites situated throughout the Plains area are made and a discriminant function analysis of a series of Early Middle Prehistoric Period projectile points is carried out.

A total of 342 artifacts were examined from Arctic Small Tool tradition, Thule, Historic Eskimo, Chipewyan, Kutchin, and Ahtna contexts. Part 1 contains an analysis of copper composition, primarily by the neutron activation method, and a description of prehistoric manufacturing techniques. Part II is an annotated bibliography of metal occurrences in the north.

Book Description
Far more than a bibliographic account of the major works in Canadian Studies, Interdisciplinary Approaches to Canadian Society provides a broad examination of the state of this growing field of study. Each chapter stresses the importance of the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches which have come to characterize Canadian Studies. Also, in an unprecedented collaborative effort, almost all the chapters are jointly authored by anglophone and francophone scholars. The works on Quebec and the francophone community respect the distinct nature of this facet of Canada. As stated in the introduction, this work is "a primer in the field and a guide to further pursuits. Its users will welcome it as a friendly introduction to an exciting country."

Book Description
An archaeological survey of Calling Lake, situated in the mixed wood forest zone approximately 225 km north of Edmonton, found an abundance of prehistoric material at sites on the east and southeast shore. Four prehistoric campsites were excavated in three field seasons from l966 to 1968. Comparison of projectile point styles with types dated elsewhere suggest that occupation of two of the sites began in the interval 3000 to 1000 B.C. with major occupation of the other two sites starting somewhat later. Cultural affiliations appear to be with the Taltheilei tradition and earlier, with the Plains area.
