Four thousand years ago, these people entered the far northern extremes of the North American continent, carving a living out of their bleak new homeland. From the hints they left behind, accessible only through the fragmented archaeological record, Robert McGhee ingeniously reconstructs a picture of this life at the margins. He discusses how the Palaeo-Eskimos spread across the entire Arctic, explains how they dealt with sharp climate changes that drastically altered their environment, offers glimpses into their spiritual practices and world view, and speculates about their eventual demise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert McGhee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774808543\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774808545\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.08h x 5.88w x 0.87d","brand":"Robert McGhee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926009217279,"sku":"9780774808545","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_0434a25b-ed8f-4ea6-83e1-834de203c09a.jpg?v=1681080663","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ancient-people-of-the-arctic-robert-mcghee-9780774808545","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
