Analysis of the Skeletal Remains from the Surma Site, Fort Erie, Ontario
Volume: OA11
Year: 1968
Author: CYBULSKI, J. S.
Page Range: 8 - 26
Abstract: A population of approximately 22 individuals from a late Middle Woodland to Late Woodland burial site in Ontario is examined in this report. Aspects of morphological variation, pathology, and dental pattern are included in the study. Comparisons with other prehistoric peoples from the province suggest that this group had belonged to an incipient agricultural community. The population is transitional in morphology between Middle and Late Woodland skeletal groups. In continuous morphological characters, the crania generally resemble that of the Iroquois physical variety.

Pedology as a Tool in Archaeological Investigations
Volume: OA11
Year: 1968
Author: FENWICK, I. M.
Page Range: 27 - 38
Abstract: It would seem, that in several respects soil investigations could be of particular value to archaeologists. Clearly an appreciation of the pedogenic processes involved in profile formation and horizon differentiation would allow of more rapid and meaningful interpretation of many excavations. In particular, an ability to recognize with certainty buried turf lines (even though they may appear to be very indistinct) is obviously a valuable capacity. However, for the environmental archaeologist working in Ontario the recognition of eroded soils and the provision of data on the past vegetation cover would seem to be nothing less than vital.

A New Location for Carhagouha, Recollect Mission in Huronia
Volume: OA11
Year: 1968
Author: HEIDENREICH, C. E.
Page Range: 39 - 46
Abstract: In a previous paper the author attempted a new reconstruction of the distribution of Huron villages and Catholic missions in Huronia. This study was made in the light of four 17'th century maps and a careful reading of contemporary documents. One of the more radical departures from previous studies is the location of Carhagouha, which the author feels was located on Midland Bay, the position it occupies on a map believed to have been drawn by Father Bressani in 1657. This paper is part of a talk given at the March meeting of the Ontario Archaeological Society.
