Cape Krusenstern: beach ridges, households, and coastal change

Reviewed community and place names are preserved where supported; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

The landmark account links coastal villages with inland travel and harvesting, not a sealed coastal economy. Freeburg's project account explains how legacy documentation was compared with renewed fieldwork.

Coastal landscape and settlement context Later Holocene, principally approximately 3000 BCE–1700 CE; phases vary Beach-ridge settlement, houses, faunal remains and revised spatial chronologies Kotzebue, Alaska, United States (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, private compound or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, harvesting or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting, harvesting or travel permission is implied.
Resumo

Casas, trabalho sazonal, paisagens e evidências

Conexões costeiras, interiores, fluviais, insulares e glaciares

Kotzebue is a modern orientation for this context, not an ancient capital designation or boundary. Different coastal and inland communities used connected landscapes; house traces do not prove one Arctic-wide polity.

Organização política e escala comunitária

Different coastal and inland communities used connected landscapes; house traces do not prove one Arctic-wide polity. Beach position is not a sufficient occupation date, and tool-tradition gaps do not prove universal regional depopulation.

Transformação posterior, património vivo e recepção moderna

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Denbigh, Choris, Norton and Ipiutak classify archaeological evidence, not fixed language or ethnic borders. Later research, colonial and stewardship events are dated separately from the principal archaeological contexts.

Connected settings The landmark account links coastal villages with inland travel and harvesting, not a sealed coastal economy.

Sequência histórica

Uma cronologia breve e documentada

Estes marcos servem de orientação e não constituem uma história completa.

  1. Coastal and inland activities

    Different phases combine settlements, fishing and hunting; they are not successive races.

    [S1]

  2. Varied settlements

    Regional Ipiutak-classified remains and food evidence differ from a single universal whaling economy.

    [S1]

  3. Renewed field programme

    The project report documents investigation and comparison with earlier records.

    [S3]

  4. Published research account

    Freeburg explains how incorporating legacy information changes archaeological questions.
