Identifying past hunter-gatherer settlement patterns in the southern Yukon, a geographical information systems approach
The goal of this thesis is the identification of hunter-gatherer settlement patterns in Kluane National Park Reserve, southwest Yukon. Geographic information systems are used as a tool to conduct this research. This thesis incorporates three types of data: environmental, archaeological and ethnograp...
