Subtitled 'A study of changing settlement strategies among the Kunghit Haida', this book presents evidence for changing settlement patterns among one of the tribes in the southern Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia. The study shows that small, widely dispersed, nucleated villages were the prevailing pattern prior to historical contact. This is quite to different to the norm in the northern region of the island where transhumance prevails. Acheson explains these differences using ethnography, historical records and archaeology.
