DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the fall of 1986 an archaeological resource assessment project was carried out at the Indian Point site, located at MacEacherns Point, Northumberland County, to determine how much of the resource was still left uneroded above the shore bank, the cultural/temporal placement this resource would occupy in the prehistory of the region, and the present and future threat to the resource. The fieldwork was carried out from September 22-26 and from October 14-16, 1986. This report gives a description of the site, the surface collection, the excavation, artefact analysis, and recommendations for further research.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStrupac, fornenst, trappy, scriss, kippy, snool, flying axehandles, from across - these and hundreds of other fascinating and colourful words and phrases give the English language as it has been spoken in Canada's smallest province a flavour all its own. With the Dictionary of Prince Edward Island English, T.K. Pratt makes a major scholarly contribution to the growing list of regional dictionaries that enable us to discover the rich heritage of the language as spoken throughout North America; at the same time it offers a splendid general introduction to the historical and sociological life of the island. There are approximately 1000 entries of non-standard or dialect words, past and present. The notes deal with usage, pronunciation, alternate forms and spellings, and stylistic and regional labels. Entries include definitions, supportive quotations from P.E.I. sources, editorial notes about various subtleties, and dictionary notes which provide links to some thirty-five other dictionaries. Pratt's introduction defines the criteria for inclusion of words, explains his research methods, and outlines the layout of entries. The end matter includes a bibliography and an important sociolinguistic essay, 'The Dictionary in Profile,' which places the work in the broader context of Prince Edward Island speech. Its range and depth of coverage make this an essential work not only for those concerned with P.E.I. and Maritimes studies, but for all those interested in the regional usage of English.
