A NOTE FROM THE EDITORIAL BOARD In selecting Archaeological Reconnaissances North of the Brooks Range in Northeastern Alaska as its inaugural publication, the editorial board gave weight to several considerations. First, the board considered it to be an important contribution to the knowledge of the Arctic, a region of ever-widening interest to archaeologists both in the New World and the Old. Second, the board wished to demonstrate in concrete action its stated position that, while monographs dealing with Canadian subject matter may begiven preference, others will be accepted. The present report is based entirely on fieldwork conducted in Alaska. Third, the board wanted to establish clearly that the Occasional Papers will not favor contributions by students, staff members oraffiliates of the University of Calgary, although it is hoped that a proportion of the papers will be from our colleagues in the department. Fourth, the board sought to demonstrate that it will consider the publication of manuscripts that are not entirely devoted to archaeology. As in the present monograph, it is no innovation to include geological supplements. But the board is prepared to go farther, and will accept manuscripts that deal essentially with other fields of anthropology, history, environmental studies and so forth. The board must, however, limit itself to submissions that are clearly and literately written, neatly typed, and require only a modicum of editorial comment. All manuscripts must be completely prepared for printing. Authors should adhere to the style of the journal American Antiquity. Content is left entirely to the judgement of the author, and the editorial board will not tamper with ideas or beliefs expressed in any manuscript accepted for publication. In the present monograph, the editorial board saw an opportunity to affirm its policy, and is proud to launch its new series with Archaeological Reconnaissances North of the Brooks Range in North-eastern Alaska. It will, we hope, set the tone for the publications that will follow. C.E. Eyman, Secretary P.L. Shinnie R.G. Forbis Book - Very Good - slight marking to covers. Dust Jacket - None.
