Whether they are discussing dietary practices on the Plateau, the meanings of totemic signatures, or issues of representation in public history, the authors present novel explorations of evidence that extend beyond earlier histories centred on the archive. By drawing on archaeological, material, oral, and ethnographic evidence and by exploring personal approaches to history and scholarship, these essays mark a significant departure from the old paradigm of history writing and will serve as models for recovering Aboriginal and cross-cultural experiences and perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Introduction: Complex Subjectivities, Multiple Ways of Knowing \/ \u003cem\u003eLaura Peers and Carolyn Podruchny\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart 1: Using Material Culture\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 Putting Up Poles: Power, Navigation, and Cultural Mixing in the Fur Trade \/ \u003cem\u003eCarolyn Podruchny, Frederic W.
