Book excerpt: A legacy of ancient campsites and artifacts chronicle peoples of the Canadian Barrenlands who followed the Beverly caribou herd for the last 8,000 years. Archaeologist Bryan Gordon integrates over 20 years of field and laboratory research in his discussion of hunters and herds. He analyzes and compares over 13,000 arifacts representing 1,000 hunting camps of four major archaeological traditions. Exploring reasons for seasonal tool variation and similarity, he incorporates geological, biological, and historical influences upon caribou hunters. Photographs bring to life the artifacts and environments of archaeology on the Barrens. Maps illustrate treeline shifts and continuity of site locations through time.
