associated with them by people and groups as they go about their daily lives. We musttherefore recognize that at any given moment, the same landscape may be experiencedand un<strong>de</strong>rstood in different ways by different people. This paper compares the distributionof archaeological camp sites and hunting sites in the northern interior of Banks Island toreconstruct the use of the region by Inuinnait men and women from to the seventeenth totwentieth centuries. It suggests that in this area, travelled primarily on foot during thesummer months, differences between men’s and women’s knowledge of the landscapemay have been less pronounced than in areas occupied at other times of year.Hogan 1 , Emily, Emma Davis 1 , Cecilia Jennings 1 , Stephen Hall 1 , Bryan Mood 1 , ColinP. Laroque 1 1 Mount Allison Dendrochronology Laboratory, Department ofGeography, Mount Allison University, Sackville, NB, E4L 1A7. ADendroarchaeological Analysis of the Cormier House Sackville, New Brunswick (13) TheCormier family has lived in their home in Sackville, NB for the past <strong>de</strong>ca<strong>de</strong> and a half.Due to a long-standing disagreement between father and son with respect to thespeculated age of their family home, the MAD Lab was contacted to assist in <strong>de</strong>terminingthe year in which the structural timber from within their home was harvested. Tensamples were collected from log beams in the home’s basement and were i<strong>de</strong>ntified as redspruce (Picea rubens). Samples were then processed and crossdated to regional masterchronologies of red spruce. Beams from the structure illustrated a probable constructionperiod between 1810 and 1815, giving the house an approximate age of 200 years. Thisdate ultimately confirmed Perry Cormier’s (father) long-held estimation of the home’sage, while Phillip Cormier (son) lost the bet. Although a simple structure, the CormierHouse marks the 100 th structure dated by the MAD Lab.Hogg, Erin (University of British Columbia) An Analysis of the State of Archaeology inthe <strong>Canadian</strong> School Curricula (30) This paper examines the nature and extent thatarchaeology is covered in the <strong>Canadian</strong> public school curricula. Archaeology should havea stake in the <strong>Canadian</strong> school curricula, so that all stu<strong>de</strong>nts have an un<strong>de</strong>rstanding of thediscipline and can un<strong>de</strong>rstand and promote heritage conservation. I examine the currentcoverage of archaeology in each province and territory’s Social Studies curricula, first bysearching for key words such as archaeology, aboriginal, past and heritage in eachdocument. I then review the content of this coverage by a statistical comparative analysisof my data. Finally, I evaluate my findings to the gui<strong>de</strong>lines <strong>de</strong>veloped by the <strong>Canadian</strong>Archaeological Association in the early 2000’s, to <strong>de</strong>termine if its expectations forstu<strong>de</strong>nts’ achievement in archaeology are appropriate and are being met, and i<strong>de</strong>ntify whatfuture steps for both the school system and the <strong>Canadian</strong> Archaeological Associationmight be to better address these gui<strong>de</strong>lines.Holyoke, Kenneth R. (University of New Brunswick) Ambiguous but Contiguous? LateMaritime Woodland Technology and “Period 6” in the Lower Saint John River (20) TheLate Maritime Woodland (LMW) is an enigmatic period in the prehistory of the MaritimePeninsula of northeastern North America. This statement is particularly true of the LMWin the Lower Saint John River of south central New Brunswick. A mo<strong>de</strong>l for settlementand technology for this area was presented in Blair (2004). This mo<strong>de</strong>l was based on the
