Book Description
"This zoo archaeological study compares the diets of two groups of Iroquoians ca. A.D. 1500. One group is the proto-Huron/Petuns in York County and the other is the proto-St. Lawrence Iroquoians in Grenville County, Ontario. The zooarchaeological remains from one village in each area provide most of the comparative data. For the proto-Huron/Petuns, the zooarchaeological sample from the Keffer site (AkGv-14) is used and for the proto-S1. Lawrence Iroquoians, the McKeown site (BeFv-I). Standard procedures for faunal identifications are used, but some modifications are made to accepted methods of analysis to adapt them to these Iroquoian samples. Because the Iroquoians were horticulturalists, palaeoethnobotanical evidence from the two sites and the two areas is considered as is previous work on Ontario human and animal skeletal remains.[...] It is concluded that the proto-Huro/Petuns had a more nutritious diet than that of the proto-St. Lawrence Iroquoians. This was likely influential in the success of proto-Huron/Petuns and the decline of the proto-St. Lawrence Iroquoians. This lroquoian material supports Malthus' position that population growth is dependent upon agriculture as opposed to Boserup's position that growth causes changes in food production." --

Archaeology of Bruce Trigger
Author: Ronald Williamson
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0773575774
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Bruce Trigger has merged the history of archaeology with new perspectives on how to understand the past. He is a critical analyst and architect of social evolutionary theory, an Egyptologist, and an authority on aboriginal cultures in north-eastern North America. His contextualization of archaeology within broader society has encouraged appreciation of the power of archaeological knowledge and he has been an effective voice for non-oppositional forms of argument in archaeological theory. In The Archaeology of Bruce Trigger, leading scholars discuss their own approaches to the interpretation of archaeological data in relation to Trigger's fundamental intellectual contributions Contributors include Michael Bisson (McGill), Stephen Chrisomalis (Toronto), Jerimy J. Cunningham (Calgary), Brian Fagan (Lindbrior Corporation), Clare Fawcett (St. Francis Xavier), Junko Habu (California at Berkeley), Ian Hodder (Stanford), Jane Kelley (Calgary), Martha Latta (Toronto), Robert MacDonald (Archaeological Services Inc.), Randall McGuire (Binghamton), Lynn Meskell (Columbia), Toby Morantz (McGill), Robert Pearce (London Museum of Archaeology), David Smith (Toronto), Peter Timmins (Timmins Martelle Heritage Consultants), Silvia Tomásková (North Carolina), Bruce G. Trigger (McGill), Alexander von Gernet (Toronto), Gary Warrick (Wilfrid Laurier), Ronald F. Williamson (Archaeological Services Inc.), Alison Wylie (Washington), and Eldon Yellowhorn (Simon Frasier)
