Defining the spatial patterns of historical land use associated with the indigenous societies of eastern North America
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review and synthesize multiple lines of evidence that describe the spatial patterns of land use associated with prehistoric and early historical Native American societies in eastern North America in order to better characterize the type, spatial extent and temporal persistence of past land use.

Navigating ancestral landscapes in the Northern Iroquoian world
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors draw upon ancestral Wendat site relocation sequences on the north shore of Lake Ontario, Ontario, Canada to explore factors influencing village relocation and how the continued abandonment of village sites created ancestral landscapes that included sites of pilgrimage, resource extraction, and ceremony.

From Farm to Firm: Canadian Tobacco c. 1860-1950
TL;DR: The authors examines the transformation of Canadian tobacco cultivation from its roots in local markets and personal consumption to a multi-million dollar concern featuring corporate plantations and multi-acre tobacco farms, focusing on how tools of agricultural modernization produced unanticipated challenges that complicated any linear development of tobacco cultivation.

Demographic and health changes during the transition to agriculture in north america
TL;DR: In this article, the consequences of Neolithic demographic transition on population's health were revisited: did biological stresses, which are indicators of a population's well being, increase with the transition to agriculture?
Journal ArticleDOI
Human–vegetation interactions during the Holocene in North America
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate the spatial correlation between continental-scale records of fossil pollen and archaeological radiocarbon data, and provide a detailed analysis of the spatiotemporal relationship between palaeo-populations and ten important North American pollen taxa.

TL;DR: Guiry et al. as discussed by the authors reported on when and how humans first became a main driver of Lake Ontario's nutrient dynamics and showed how the nitrogenous nutrient regimes of even the world's largest freshwater ecosystems can be highly sensitive to short-term watershed forest cover disturbances and indicate a profound shift in the relationship between humans and their environment.
