Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a uniquely comprehensive history and ethnohistory of the Denaâina people in the region of Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, principally covering the Iliamna and Lake Clark areas. The ethnohistory presented by the author begins with the Denaâina peoplesâ origins and early history, and follows through the Russian and American contact periods, with a focus on the significant impacts of introduced diseases, altered trade networks, and cultural change via mission schools. The book proceeds with a discussion of subsistence-based cultural activities, and the central importance of salmon, fish camps, and hunting to the traditional Denaâina economy. The author explores the historical development of social organization within Dena'ina communities, and the importance of kinship ties in the region, before discussing the arrival of aviation technology in the area, and changes brought to subsistence practices and travel. The book concludes with an examination of contemporary themes of multiple uses, multiple meanings, and the complex ways in which the Denaâina peopleâs cultural heritage and traditions interact with the modern management of their traditional lands.
