Environmental Archaeology and Landscape Transformation at the Seventeenth-Century Ferryland Site, Newfoundland

Bain, Allison, Prévost, Marie-Annick·2010·Historical Archaeology

Abstract

From the 16th century onwards, English, Bretons, Basques, and Portuguese exploited the rich cod stocks of Newfoundland's Grand Banks. Several permanent settlements in eastern Newfoundland were begun in the early 17th century, including the settlement at Ferryland (1621–1696). Planter families at Ferryland fished and welcomed seasonal fishing fleets, participating in a trade network that included the West Indies, New England, the Iberian Peninsula, the Mediterranean, and Great Britain. The colonization process brought about changes to the local environment due to both the intentional and unintentional importation of European plants and animals. The presence of a substantial percentage of nonnative plants and insects suggests that ballast dumping as well as the establishment of small cottage gardens contributed to the introduction of several species to Newfoundland. Data from archaeobotanical, archaeoentomological, and faunal analyses can be used to examine processes of biological transfer, landscape change, and development of local household economies of Ferryland residents.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
