The Prediction, Sushma Joshi Mar 2014

The Prediction, Sushma Joshi

HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies

"The Prediction" was told to writer Sushma Joshi by her father--it is considered a true story. Joshi's family were astrologers till her grandfather's generation, after which their branch of the family stopped practicing astrology. The word "Joshi" is a common surname derived from "Jyotish", which means Vedic astrologers, and is shared by both Brahmin and Newar astrologers in Nepal. Their original surname was "Regmi". The family fled the Mogul invasion 700 years ago, and came from the Kumaon area of the Indian Himalayas (more specifically, Naini Tal's Joshi Muth) to Bajhang, before migrating to Kathmandu to work at the royal …

Mess Calls From Signal Hill, Newfoundland, Frances L. Stewart Feb 2014

Mess Calls From Signal Hill, Newfoundland, Frances L. Stewart

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Test excavations in the summer of 1984 for a resource inventory of Signal Hill National Historic Park, St. John's, Newfoundland, unearthed 1,954 faunal elements from structures built between 1790 and 1945. These were predominantly military buildings, although some were converted to civilian hospitals. Signalmen and their families have lived on the site also. The site, however, was mainly occupied by a British garrison from 1790 to 1870. The faunal remains from the various structures were analyzed as distinct units, and in this article, those from the buildings constructed and used by the British garrison are emphasized. The majority of the …


The Structural Evolution Of Fort Frontenac, W. Bruce Stewart Feb 2014

The Structural Evolution Of Fort Frontenac, W. Bruce Stewart

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Fort Frontenac, located at the eastern end of Lake Ontario, in Kingston, Ontario, is among the earliest European sites in the Great Lakes Basin. The post was established in 1673 by Count Frontenac, then Governor of New France, as a means of intercepting furs destined for the Dutch and, later, the English merchants at Albany, New York. As the result of ongoing archaeological and historical research, a comprehensive structural history of the post has been developed. As the archaeological investigations have been restricted to the northwest bastion of the fort, that area will serve as the focus of the present …


French Occupation Of The Lakes Ontario And Erie Drainage Basins 1650-1760, Donald A. Brown Feb 2014

French Occupation Of The Lakes Ontario And Erie Drainage Basins 1650-1760, Donald A. Brown

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Maps dating to the 17th and 18th centuries and written accounts are used to identify a number of contemporary posts en route from Montreal to Detroit/Pontchartrain which otherwise receive little or no mention in the historical record. Archaeological evidence from the undocumented mid-18th-century Floating Bridge site, near Kingston, Ontario, is interpreted as a possible trader's post/Metis habitation occupied following the destruction of Fort Frontenac and prior to the post-1763 British occupation of the area. Evidence is presented for its use by civilians, who selected the site primarily for its environment rather than as a point of intersection on well-travelled trade …


Acadian Maine In Archaeological Perspective, Alaric Faulkner, Gretchen Faulkner Feb 2014

Acadian Maine In Archaeological Perspective, Alaric Faulkner, Gretchen Faulkner

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Recent excavations at Fort Pentagoet and Saint-Castin's Habitation have shown physical evidence of three separate 17th-century Acadian occupations near the mouth of the Penobscot River in mid-coastal Maine. From 1635 to 1654, Fort Pentagoet defended private commercial interests of Charles d'Aulnay against English enemies and French rivals. From 1670 until its destruction by the Dutch in 1674, the fort served as military headquarters for the administration of all Acadia under governors Grandfontaine and Chambly. During the last quarter of the century, French authority was reestablished with a nearby Indian village at the habitation of Jean Vincent de Saint-Castin. The archaeological …
