The paper discusses how remote sensing methods can enhance documentation of archaeological sites and their interpretation.2019-01-16T21:57:56.806999+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/e128b4b6-25e5-447f-9159-d4ff1d2093f4The 2015 flood assessment program for Tongue Creek2020-04-20T17:02:59.034523+00:00The 2013 flood has presented an unparalleled opportunity to document historic resources sites exposed by the flood event. In a 2015 flood assessment survey along Tongue Creek, 20 new archaeological sites and 12 palaeontological and palaeoenvironmental sites were documented. This survey has shed light on the late precontact use of the valley by Indigenous people, including large-scale communal bison hunting practices. Part of the 37th volume of the Archaeological Survey of Alberta Occasional Paper series, which contains 18 articles exploring multiple facets of the impact on archaeological resources of the 2013 flood in southern Alberta.2018-01-30T20:41:10.201729+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/79a153ab-ed19-4882-947d-90c170452e1fThe Wearmouth Buffalo Jump : a stratified protohistoric site on lower Jumpingpound Creek, Alberta2020-04-20T17:49:41.237537+00:00As a result of the program initiated by Alberta Culture and Tourism in response to the widespread flooding of 2013, a series of previously unidentified archaeological sites were recorded northwest of Calgary on a tributary of the Bow River, Jumpingpound Creek, near the confluence of the two waterways. This site complex is organized around the newly recorded Wearmouth Buffalo Jump, a deeply stratified bison kill at the foot of a small cliff. The area represents a rare instance in which aspects of archaeology, history, and Indigenous tradition may intersect at a geographic location that has remained largely intact since the period of first contact, yet this area remains highly susceptible to flood related erosion.
