Late Prehistoric Cultural Dynamics and Parameters of Subsistence at Wales, Alaska

阿拉斯加大学（ENRI）的罗杰·哈里特（Roger Harritt）博士提出了这个建议，目的是完成对阿拉斯加威尔士多个遗址的挖掘。这些遗址因生存所需的挖掘和侵蚀而遭到严重破坏。这个项目是多方面的，包括历史、人种学、考古学和动物分析，以获得1700-200年前接触前因纽特人生活方式的完整图景。此外，这项研究希望能揭示该地区的史前文化综合体。PI向社区开展了外联工作，并得到了社区的大力支持，包括雇用威尔士居民建立社区外接触项目，以及让威尔士学生和其他居民参与实际的研究分析和对其社区遗址的挖掘。

This proposal by Dr. Roger Harritt of the University of Alaska, ENRI, is to complete the excavations of the multiple sites at Wales, Alaska. These sites have been severely damaged by subsistence digging and erosion. The proposed project is multifaceted in using history, ethnography, archaeology and faunal analysis to get a complete picture of pre-contact Inuit life-ways from 1700-200 BP. In addition, the research hopes to shed light on the prehistoric cultural complexes of the region. The PI has done outreach into the community and has strong community support, including hiring Wales residents to build community out reach project, as well as including Wales students and other residents in the actual research analyses and the excavations of the sites in their community.
