Save the Date: 58th Annual Meeting of the CAA, May 6–10, Canmore, AB

President’s Fall Message

Hello, Bonjour, Kweˈ

Fall is well underway, and the CAA Board has been busy. We have news to share.

We are excited to host the membership and delegates at the 58th Annual Meeting in Canmore, Alberta this spring (May 6–10)! Joanne Braaten and Brian Vivian along with their team are busy finalizing details for a joint conference between the CAA and the Archaeological Society of Alberta. Please visit the CAA website for announcements. The Call for Sessions has recently been posted https://canadianarchaeology.com/caa/annual-meeting/call-for-sessions. Thank you, Joanne, Brian and team. The best of luck as the planning continues.

We are equally excited to share that the 2027 Annual Meeting will be hosted in Prince Edward Island! This is the first time the CAA conference will be in PEI. Climate change, sea level rise and archaeology is the theme, and the Island landscape is exceptional to explore the subject. We will learn more from Conference Chair Christian Thériault following the Canmore gathering.

  • CJA/JCA 47(2). Cover image: The cover image is from Jeffries Wyman's 1868 article, “An Account of Some of the Kjoekkenmoeddings, or Shell-Heaps in Maine and Massachusetts” (The American Naturalist 1[11]:584). Wyman was an anatomist and the first Director of the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University. The term Kjoekkenmoedding comes from the designation for shell-heaps used by Danish prehistorians who identified similar features and provided the inspiration for Wyman's research.
