内容説明

This collection of papers offers exciting new insights on the Dorset Palaeo-Eskimo occupation of Arctic Canada, Newfoundland and Greenland. Featuring a wide range of recent research, the book covers topics such as biological relationships within the Dorset population; succession and discontinuity in Palaeo-Eskimo occupations of various regions; interpreting local chronological sequences based on stylistic change; Dorset technology in soapstone, metal, and skeletal materials; rare petroglyph sites; and social aspects of the stone "longhouses" associated with late Dorset occupations. An introductory essay provides historical context for these fascinating new studies of a pre-Inuit Arctic people and their distinctive way of life.
