This book explores the early Paleo-Inuit societies that settled in the Avanersuaq/Thule region of High Arctic Northwest Greenland from 2500 BC to 1400 AD. It offers a detailed archaeological study of their movements and settlements in this biologically rich area.
An in-depth archaeological examination of the pioneering Paleo-Inuit communities in the High Arctic.
The First People in the Avanersuaq/Thule Region delves into the migration and settlement patterns of Paleo-Inuit groups who ventured into this gateway to Greenland. Archaeological evidence reveals multiple occupations and reoccupations by these groups over time.
Some Paleo-Inuit originated from the central Canadian Arctic, with some settling in the Avanersuaq/Thule region and continuing their journeys into North and West Greenland. Others traveled from Greenland to Quttinirpaaq/Ellesmere Island.
This volume is the first to provide a thorough analysis of recorded Paleo-Inuit sites in the Avanersuaq/Thule region. It also offers a comparative study between these sites and those found in Quttinirpaaq/Ellesmere Island, Canada, shedding light on the connections between these Arctic communities.
