1 .Listen to part of a lecture in an anthropology class.
该句暂无译文!
2 .Okay, we\'re continuing today with our discussion of the Inuit people of North America.
该句暂无译文!
3 .We finished up covering their early history through the 18th century, right?
该句暂无译文!
4 .So let\'s move on to the 19th century.
该句暂无译文!
5 .Now, of the different groups that are considered part of the Inuit people。
该句暂无译文!
6 .you remember I mentioned the Mackenzie Inuit last time.
该句暂无译文!
7 .The Mackenzie Inuit are the ones who live up in northwestern most Canada
该句暂无译文!
8 .In the 19th century, the most important settlement of the Mackenzie Inuit was kitigaaryuit.
该句暂无译文!
9 .The settlement of kitigaaryuit, well, it was actually a village.
该句暂无译文!
10 .Archeological evidence indicates that kitigaaryuit was central to the history and culture of the Mackenzie Inuit.
该句暂无译文!
11 .It was located on the coast of Arctic Canada, and had an annual whale hunt.
该句暂无译文!
12 .In the 19th century,it became a trading center for trade between the Mackenzie Inuit and the euro Americans.
该句暂无译文!
13 .But even though kitigaaryuit holds such an important position in Mackenzie Inuit history.
该句暂无译文!
14 .we don\'t actually have a thorough understanding of what life was like there back then.
该句暂无译文!
15 .What we do know about ninth century life in kindergarten comes from three kinds of data.
该句暂无译文!
16 .One of them is from ethnohistoric sources.
该句暂无译文!
17 .which are written accounts, documents that were written back in the 19th century.
该句暂无译文!
18 .Another type of data is from the archeological evidence I mentioned.
该句暂无译文!
19 .So where else could we get data? Any ideas?
该句暂无译文!
20 .Interviews with modern Mackenzie Inuit people they must know about their own history.
该句暂无译文!
21 .Yes, interviews, oral histories, these capture the knowledge stories and legends
该句暂无译文!
22 .that have been passed down through the generations.
该句暂无译文!
23 .The oral tradition is an important source of information.
该句暂无译文!
24 .It provides unique insights about Mackenzie Inuit life.
该句暂无译文!
25 .So it\'s good that they are finally being recorded now, better late than never
该句暂无译文!
26 .although we all know memories can get blurred over time.
该句暂无译文!
27 .But getting back to the ethnohistoric documents
该句暂无译文!
28 .unfortunately, there aren\'t many written documents from the time of the kindergarten settlement
该句暂无译文!
29 .and many of them have, well, limitations.
该句暂无译文!
30 .limitations? Well, for example, some blue Euro American explorers
该句暂无译文!
31 .recorded details of their interactions with the Mackenzie Inuit in the area
该句暂无译文!
32 .but these explorers never physically stepped foot inside the actual kitigaaryuit settlement.
该句暂无译文!
33 .Their documents provide us with some idea of what life was probably like near kindergarten at the time.
该句暂无译文!
34 .But Well, another example, some documents don\'t get the dates when events occurred.
该句暂无译文!
35 .Other documents contain inconsistencies
该句暂无译文!
36 .and one had the location of the whale hunt completely wrong.
该句暂无译文!
37 .One important set of journals and letters that is still being studied was written back in the late 1800s and early 1900s
该句暂无译文!
38 .by a man named Isaac stringer during several yearly visits to kitigaaryuit.
该句暂无译文!
39 .There are a number of reasons why stringers documents are significant.
该句暂无译文!
40 .His notes were full of details.
该句暂无译文!
41 .He wrote daily about the events happening around him
该句暂无译文!
42 .descriptions of the Inuit hunting whales from their kayaks
该句暂无译文!
43 .descriptions of Inuit rituals and practices, such as how they dried and stored food for the winter
该句暂无译文!
44 .and oh, oh, a whole lot more
该句暂无译文!
45 .how they decisions what their houses were like.
该句暂无译文!
46 .Sounds like you wrote about a lot. Yes, but here\'s what\'s particularly important.
该句暂无译文!
47 .Stringer was able to describe an extremely important transitional period in Inuit society
该句暂无译文!
48 .right after large numbers of American whaling ships and sailors
该句暂无译文!
49 .had arrived on the scene.
该句暂无译文!
50 .By looking at his journals over time, we can even see evidence of their impact.
该句暂无译文!
51 .For instance, stringer wrote in 1900 that the Inuit were using kayaks to hunt whales as they had been all along.
该句暂无译文!
52 .But when stringer returned in 1909 they had switched to using Euro American style boats.
该句暂无译文!
53 .a pretty dramatic change.
该句暂无译文!
54 .It doesn\'t appear that stringer exaggerated anything
该句暂无译文!
55 .his notes are reliable, consistent and compatible
该句暂无译文!
56 .with things we know from other sources
该句暂无译文!
57 .and he wrote it all from right there in kitigaaryuit
该句暂无译文!
58 .not not from somewhere else years later
该句暂无译文!
59 .looking back on his memories
该句暂无译文!
60 .it\'s too bad that he never visited during the winter though.
该句暂无译文!
