While ethnographic and other data indicate that quartz has been invested with special qualities and meanings in various cultures around the world, archaeological studies in circumpolar Europe have tended to discuss quartz use in exclusively practical and technological terms. This article takes a “nontechnological” approach to quartz finds from the boreal zone of northeastern Europe. We identify spatiotemporal variations in quartz use and explore how quartzes were perceived and signified in the cultural and cosmological context of Stone Age eastern Fennoscandia, concentrating particularly on what we call “high-quality quartzes.” More specifically, we analyze and interpret patterns of quartz use in relation to the Neolithization of northern Eurasia. We discuss our findings against the animistic-shamanistic cosmologies of circumpolar communities and especially in regard to the emerging Neolithic worldview in the north.","PeriodicalId":45997,"journal":{"name":"Arctic Anthropology","volume":"54 1","pages":"110 - 94"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2017-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3368/aa.54.2.94","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41537346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I do so comparatively by drawing upon my research and travels in Greenland and Iceland, exploring how place, identity, and social relations reflect lived relations, amplifying how mobility, narratives, knowledge, and locality are closely entwined and cannot be delineated alone. This entwinement symbolizes strikingly similar allusions of the perception and movement of two northern worlds—spatially distant, yet comparatively close. This comparative approach, while emphasizing diversity, highlights similarity in the ways in which people live in and tell stories about the world. Traveling through the cultural landscapes of these two settings, the narratives embedded within them, it is amplified that one’s world is never complete but continuously under construction, retracing a path through the world of others.","PeriodicalId":45997,"journal":{"name":"Arctic Anthropology","volume":"54 1","pages":"83 - 93"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2017-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3368/aa.54.2.83","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46240695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, environmental challenges, such as the formation of a widespread ice crust across the Yamal Peninsula in the winter of 2013–2014 and the outbreak of anthrax in the summer of 2016, have provoked a discussion on Nenets herding “crisis” that allegedly implies the overgrowth of herds and the overgrazing of pastures. Biologists and administrators emphasize the necessity to significantly reduce the Yamal reindeer population “for the sake of environmental safety.” The author of this article presents an alternative approach focused on a system of movement: skillful herd-navigation and quick maneuvering is the basis of Nenets’ traditional rule ya puna hayoda (land after us remains). Conversely, the consequences of sluggish and stationary behavior, including huddling around camp for a long time, is reflected in another Nenets proverb: yadata habei (“land is turned upside down”).","PeriodicalId":45997,"journal":{"name":"Arctic Anthropology","volume":"54 1","pages":"40 - 51"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2017-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3368/aa.54.2.40","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46364686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Sovietized Siberia, the atheist state fought against everything that was “religious” and thus contributed to the wane of reincarnation ideology and related ritual practices. In addition, the state suppressed a distinct Yukaghir ethnicity it had partly constructed itself. In the 1990s, rebirth returned to public discourse, which coincided with the time of a vibrant ethnic revival movement. We shall explore how today Yukaghir elders, who fear their people will die out, link the idea of individual reincarnation with the trope of “the rebirth of a people.” In this particular sociohistorical context, they juxtapose the trajectories of personal and collective becoming through the notion of recognition, as both gaining full personhood and full peoplehood depends on being acknowledged by others (the living and the dead) as well as by oneself.","PeriodicalId":45997,"journal":{"name":"Arctic Anthropology","volume":"54 1","pages":"24 - 39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2017-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3368/aa.54.2.24","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48684197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many choose to study abroad and regard their time there (in Denmark and beyond) as part and parcel with their education, stating that education is not only for their own social mobility but also contributes to Greenland’s future of independence from Denmark. The article is based on a small survey and follow-up ethnographic interviews in 2011 and 2012. Through the analytical lens of cultural citizenship and “the right to be different,” this article explores how students navigate the field of tension between stereotypes about Greenlanders and Danes, belonging, distance, (im)mobility, and the future of a nation. It argues that students’ assertion of their own difference can be seen as a rejection but also an embrace of Danish, as well as Greenlandic, cultural and legal citizenships.","PeriodicalId":45997,"journal":{"name":"Arctic Anthropology","volume":"54 1","pages":"71 - 82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2017-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3368/aa.54.2.71","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47967138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combined with anthropological fieldwork, oral history allows us to reveal new facets and principles of memory negotiation. Biographical narratives from a multiethnic fishing village established by Stalin’s relocation policy help us develop a fine- grained understanding of awareness between the individual and the public sphere of memory that Hamilton and Shopes (2009) identified as important. Taking the debate on collective memory one step further, we suggest that there is more than a duality between the personal and the general sphere. We conclude that collective memory in its multivocal character crucially shapes human sense of belonging to groups, drawing meaning from the diverse interpretation of their past.","PeriodicalId":45997,"journal":{"name":"Arctic Anthropology","volume":"54 1","pages":"1 - 23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2017-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3368/aa.54.2.1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47996209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
