- W2177449042 abstract "J. A. Ford has recently (1959) offered a revision of the traditional view on Canadian Thule culture origins. He suggests that Canadian Thule is not derived directly from Birnirk, but that the eastern Thule migrants were contemporaries of the post-Birnirk Nunagiak stage. The further revised hypotheses of this paper are based on data generally unavailable for Ford's analysis. These hypotheses state that: (a) by A.D. 900 Birnirk existed as far east as Amundsen Gulf, (b) a Nunagiak-like culture was carried to Victoria Island, (c) the Birnirk-Nunagiak development occurred generally along these coasts, (d) a proto-Thule stage existed about A.D. 900-1100 between Birnirk and Nunagiak, and (e) this proto-Thule, developing into Canadian Thule in transit, spread across the eastern Arctic, entering Greenland by A.D. 1100. 1OR MANY YEARS prior to 1959 archaeologists generally agreed that the Thule culture of the North American eastern Arctic evolved on the north coast of Alaska from the preceding Birnirk culture and that it was then carried eastward to Canada and Greenland by migration. Unfortunately, the postwar expansion in Arctic archaeological field work stressed earlier cultures and, therefore, tending to ignore the Thule, did little to test or explore ideas concerning it. The lack of interest accorded Thule culture stems from no lack of problems. For example, there is still no study of its occurrence in the region between Banks and King William islands. The relationship between Thule and the antecedent Dorset culture remains a nearly complete mystery and perhaps the preeminent problem in eastern Arctic prehistory. Regarding the demise of Thule culture in Canada, the most recent interpretation is Birket-Smith's view (Jenness 1923; Birket-Smith 1929, 1959; Collins 1951) that it was replaced by an Eschato-Eskimo advance to the coast from the Barrenlands interior. This view, although impressively grounded in close ethnological analysis, lacks the archaeological documentation so vital to a cultural reconstruction projected backward in time. For the termination of Thule, I have suggested elsewhere (Taylor 1962) that the Thule culture and people were the direct cultural and biological ancestors of the modem central Eskimo, implying a rejection of the Eschato-Eskimo postulate. More recently and in far more impressive fashion, VanStone has presented a study showing the marked similarity between Thule and recent Netsilik material cultures (VanStone 1962). The similarities have led him to conclude that the Eschato-Eskimo idea must, despite its merit, be set aside and that Thule culture is ancestral to recent Central Es-" @default.
