The Archaeological Survey of Alberta is excited to release a complete volume of our latest Occasional Paper Series (No. 44) available for free download here.
The current volume is dedicated to synopses or components of graduate theses and dissertations written over the last 15 years. The initial six articles were released in April and the final four articles are featured below. They explore projectile points, the use of space at archaeological sites, and a bison skull ceremonial feature.
An examination of cultural sequences in the Boreal Forest of northeastern British Columbia (Jen Hogan)
The seventh article in the volume compiles information about projectile points in the Peace Region to inform cultural contact, technologies, and chronological change. Northeastern British Columbia and northwestern Alberta were fluid places with long histories of cultural influence from neighbouring regions that are detectable in the shape and function of lithic artifacts.
