This paper examines the history of the early Russian-American settlement of Zapadni (XPI-007) on St. Paul Island in the Pribilofs. An analysis of faunal remains recovered from the site during archaeological work done in association with The St. Paul History and Archaeology Project, led by Douglas Veltre and Allen McCartney in 2000 and 2001, supplements oral and written historical records. These well-preserved archaeofauna provide insight into the ethnic identity of the Unangax̂ laborers who harvested northern fur seals (Callorhinus ursinus) near the site between AD 1787 and the early 1800s and a glimpse at the beginning of the creolization that affected both Unangax̂ and Russian individuals. Although a small number of domesticated specimens were identified, the Zapadni faunal assemblage demonstrates the maintenance of traditional Unangax̂ foodways during a time of intense colonialism and shows the overwhelming importance of northern fur seal pups as a subsistence resource.

从阿拉斯加普里比洛夫群岛圣保罗岛上的俄罗斯时期营地中回收的古细菌分析

本文考察了普利比洛夫州圣保罗岛上扎帕德尼（XPI​​-007）早期俄美殖民地的历史。在与Douglas Veltre和Allen McCartney于2000年和2001年领导的“圣保罗历史与考古项目”相关的考古工作中，对从遗址中恢复的动物遗存进行了分析，补充了口头和书面历史记录。这些保存完好的古细菌提供了对Unangax̂工人的种族身份的深刻见解，这些工人在公元1787年至1800年代早期在该地点附近收获了北部海狗（Callorhinus ursinus），并在乍得一见钟情，这影响了Unangax̂和俄罗斯个体。尽管鉴定出少量驯化标本，
