Partners in the present to safeguard the past: building cooperative relations between the Innu and archaeologists regarding archaeological research in Innu territory. Études/Inuit/Studies, 22(2), 31-40. Three Key Words: cooperative, the Innu, archaeological research Abstract: In this article, Peter Armitage and Daniel Ashini discuss the response and role of the Innu population in archaeological research of the historic resources in Labrador and in eastern Quebec. The Labrador in the European imagination was considered a barren, wasteland without any value, however, things have changed during the past few centuries. The study of archaeology is focused on 3 main contexts, political, economic, and historical context. Archaeology was not conducted in a political and economic vacuum before. The authors also discuss how the administration of archaeological research has been awarded management for provincial and territorial governments. The failure to properly survey these areas prior to flooding constitutes one of the greatest unfortunates. Therefore, the Innu Nation encourages archaeologists to do research on their culture as a way of protecting their culture and relics. Quotation: “The Historic Resources Act has an important role to play in the management of historic resources for the purpose of tourist development. Who will “own” historic resources, ensure their long-term protection, and control their presentation to the public by way of interpretation centres and traveling exhibits could be highly controversial in the future, both for the Innu and neighbouring ethnic groups” (Armitage & Ashini, 1998, p. 35). "The joining together of traditional knowledge and archaeological projects is more evident in Labrador communities today than it was in past years.” (00:01:45 - 00:01:55) Hood, B.C. & Baikie, G. (1998). Mineral resource development, archaeology and aboriginal rights in northern Labrador. Études/Inuit/Studies, 22(2), 7-29. Three Key Words: Nain, Mineral, Research Methods Abstract: This book was written about the mineral developments at Voisey’s Bay in Northern Labrador and its impact on the Aboriginal population living there, the community of Nain. Community- based approaches are becoming more common with archaeology as they are using many different research methods. Interest continued to increase in how these developments can affect the Innu and Inuit’s traditional life. Torngat Mountains National Park Reserve raised many concerns due to where it is located but the Innu and Inuit groups negotiated with the developers. The paper concludes by discussing researchers' moral and ethical responsibilities to the communities and cultures which they are studying Quotation: “The central archaeological problem was the lack of any coherent advance or long-term planning and the reluctance of the company to mandate much other than site-specific surveys which focused on immediate area impacts.

Three Key Words: Oral History Abstract: The oral histories of Nuu-chah-nulth on the west coast of Vancouver Island are illustrated in this text. The Indigenous in here has overlapping timelines and conjunctive historical events along with the settlement. The author studied the ages of occupation in neighboring settlements as well as temporal trends that are in these large settlements by comparing the datasets. After that, the author aligns the oral history and information from those datasets of settlement to point out overlapping and complementary patterns that record the development, expansion, and movement of residence patterns in various locations for the past twenty-five hundred years. The author says that the comparison provided additional historical details and the indigenous perspectives on the history of intergenerational settlement between the spatially associated archaeological sites within a contact-era Nuu-chah-nulth local group territory that is along the outer coast of British Columbia. Quotation: "Oral history can be a robust repository for intergenerational knowledge due to its embedded cross-linked narrative chronology and its use of geographically grounded place names and named actors. It is therefore a logical source for archaeological comparison” (McKechnie, 2015, p. 194). Vincent, S. (2004). Apparent compatibility, real incompatibility: native and western versions of history—the Innu example. In J.R. Clammer, Poirier, S. & Schwimmer, E. (Eds.), Figured Worlds: Ontological Obstacles in Intercultural Relations (pp. 132-47). Toronto: University of Toronto Press. Three Key Words: History, Incompatibility, Innu. Abstract: In this text, Vincent pointed out that the history of Canada’s Aboriginal population has been indicated in history textbooks and classes, however, these stories are being told through a more Westernized lens. Vincent’s tone is very serious about how subjective historians are to the history of Canada’s Aboriginals. Each event is told through each historian's interpretation of it. This ability allows historians to avoid certain topics or events that disprove their theories or argue about their discourse. To conclude this text, Indigenous versions of their history need to be in these papers with Western at the same time in order to obtain a comprehensive view of the events. Quotation: “Even within one and the same society, historians accord greater or lesser importance to event, themes, and specific subjects depending on the era in which they conducted their research, their own ideologies, and the development of their methods.” (pg. 134) “Even within one and the same society, historians accord greater or lesser importance to event, themes, and specific subjects depending on the era in which they conducted their research, their own ideologies, and the development of their methods.” (pg. 134) “Even within one and the same society, historians accord greater or lesser importance to event, themes, and specific subjects depending on the era in which they conducted their research, their own ideologies, and the development of their methods.” (pg. 134)
