5. Metal in the Arctic
- whyfiles.org
- In the eternal scarcity of the Arctic, small things can attain great value. Before traders brought the wealth of the industrialized world to the Arctic, you needed a hunk of the proper stone to make something as basic as an oil lamp. ...
- But until recently, metal was seldom found at Arctic archeological digs. ...
- Where typical excavation reports once listed two or three metal objects, now "it's there in abundance," says veteran Arctic archeologist Allen McCartney of the University of Arkansas. ...
- Arctic people did not use heat, so metal was neither purified from ore nor alloyed with other metals to increase its strength. ...
- The new-found abundance of metal has forced archeologists to reevaluate their views of ancient Arctic culture. Most of the reassessment reflects the effort to answer one simple question: How did Arctic people get the metal?.
- Sources of copper and iron are exceptionally rare in the Arctic. ...
- This analysis shows that Cape York iron was used through much of Greenland and the Canadian Arctic, indicating that it was carried by a widespread trade network. It's possible, McCartney speculates, that the metals were traded at early versions of the summer trading fairs that Arctic peoples held until recently. ...
- The metal may have been traded by long-distance peddlers, but McCartney observes that the territorial imperatives of Arctic peoples might have hampered such a trading technique. ...
- Copper, a softer but still useful metal, originated at the Coronation Gulf-Coppermine River area along Canada's central Arctic coast. ...
- Whatever the details of the metal-trading relationships, they apparently were considered reliable by the Thule, a large group of early Arctic people. Starting around 1,000 AD, shortly after metal from the Cape York meteorite began appearing in the Arctic, these people began using iron in preference to flaking stone. ... And metal, rare though it was, remained the material of choice in the Arctic until the arrival of European traders, who discovered that metal tools were among their most popular wares. ...
