“…Nevertheless, such processes behind human movements may involve quite distant times and are thus similar to our subject area-and in some cases migrations are questioned, specifically in relation to the Nenets, part of the Cree or Ojibwa. There are instances where a migration has partly moved into the realm of legend, becoming a Great Journey, a part of a tribe's religious life and the axis of its ideology, for example among the Ojibwa, where tradition holds that they abandoned their previous grounds near the mouth of the Saint Lawrence river and moved to the Great Lakes area (Bishop 1974;Greenberg and Morrison 1982).…”

In this article we take a fresh look at the population dynamics of the Polish Plain in the transition from the Pleistocene to the Holocene, using Bayesian analysis and modelling of radiocarbon dates, and contrast the results with data from the North German Plain. We argue against simple adaptationalist models and instead see the cultural landscape as a complex patchwork of old forms and the emerging new traits of the early Mesolithic. We argue that the Mesolithic directly follows the Final Palaeolithic on the Polish Plain, without the chronological hiatus of 150–300 years that is often assumed for that region; while, by contrast, the two cultural patterns—Final Palaeolithic and microlith-based Mesolithic—overlapped significantly in time on the adjacent North German Plain.

This article is based on a study of traditional lifestyle practices in the Sandy Lake First Nation community in northwestern Ontario, considering some of the benefits and risks of reintroducing off-the-land food sources, specifically as they relate to the burbot (Lota lota L). This article concentrates, therefore, on four avenues of exploration: (1) the "nutrition transition" in the First Nations population, (2) the meaning of a traditional diet in the Sandy Lake First Nation, (3) a nutritional value analysis of the burbot to determine its energy content and medicinal properties, and (4) the plausibility of reintroducing off-the-land food sources into the Sandy Lake First Nation community. We argue that though there may be health advantages to the reintroduction of off-the land food sources into First Nations contemporary diets, these benefits will be realized only if practiced according to historical dietary traditions drawing from critical parts of animal tissues to maximize nutrient intake.
