Archaeology of the North Alaska Coast: A Settlement Pattern Study from Point Franklin to Wainwright

[321112 . SHEEHAN]这个考古项目将在富兰克林角的Pingasagruk恢复史前和历史上的占领数据，这里曾经是阿拉斯加楚科奇海岸的一个捕鲸村。快速侵蚀的遗址将为该地区不同的贸易和资源获取途径提供比较数据，并为解释过去记录良好的土著战争提供背景。除了分析定居点的废弃阶段，以及Pingasagruk历史和史前定居点之间的间隔，还将使用空间域雷达（SDR）记录记录较少的外围遗址。有关房屋坑再利用和丘的垂直和历史程度的信息可用于改进人口估计和资源开发模式。该项目将与温赖特村居民和北坡自治市镇合作进行。学生和长者都会参加。＊＊＊

9321112 SHEEHAN This archaeological project will recover data on prehistoric and historic occupations at Pingasagruk, Point Franklin, once a whaling village on Alaska's Chukchi Sea coast. The rapidly eroding site will provide comparative data on differential access to trade and resources in the region, and provide a background for interpreting the well-documented aboriginal warfare of the past. In addition to analyzing settlement abandonment phases, and the hiatus between the historic and prehistoric settlement at Pingasagruk, poorly documented outlying sites will be recorded using spatial domain radar (SDR). Information on house pit reuse and the vertical and historical extents of middens can be used to refine population estimates and patterns of resource exploitation. The project will be carried out in cooperation with Wainwright village residents and the North Slope Borough. Both students and elders will participate. ***
