Museum of Anthropology

Das Museum of Anthropology in der Nähe von Vancouver ist eines der führenden Museen für die Kultur der First Nations im pazifischen Nordwesten. Es ist eine bedeutende Touristenattraktion und befindet sich am Marine Drive in den University Endowment Lands, einem gemeindefreien Gebiet westlich der Stadt. Das Museum ist eng mit der University of British Columbia (UBC) verbunden. Die umfangreiche Sammlung ist in einem Gebäude aus Beton untergebracht, dessen Baustil an das Fachwerk der örtlichen Ureinwohner erinnert. Ausstellung Das Museum besitzt zahlreiche große Skulpturen, Totempfähle und kulturelle Objekte. Obwohl das Museum auf die indigenen Völker der pazifischen Nordwestküste spezialisiert ist, umfasst die aus etwa 38.000 ethnographischen und etwa 535.000 archäologischen Gegenständen bestehende Sammlung auch Objekte von allen anderen Kontinenten. Die Sammlung besteht sowohl aus historischen als auch aus zeitgenössischen Objekten. Bekanntestes Ausstellungsobjekt ist wohl die aus dem Holz der Nutka-Scheinzypresse gefertigte Skulptur „The Raven and the First Men“ (Der Rabe und die ersten Menschen) von Bill Reid, die zusammen mit dem „The Spirit of Haida Gwaii“ (Der Geist von Haida Gwaii) auf der kanadischen 20-Dollar-Note der „Canadian Journey Series“ aus dem Jahr 2004 abgebildet ist. Weitere bedeutende Arbeiten von Reid sind seine Bären und Wasco-Skulpturen, einige Beispiele seines Goldschmucks und ein Prototyp des Haida-Einbaums, das er für die Weltausstellung Expo 86 schnitzte. Das Museum besitzt mehrere große Artefakte des Musqueam-Stammes aus dem späten 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert. Diese sind besonders selten, da die Musqueam eines der ersten Völker im Nordwesten waren, die durch die Europäer umgesiedelt und durch eingeschleppten Seuchen dezimiert wurden. Ebenfalls zum Museum gehören eine umfangreiche Sammlung aus dem südpazifischen Raum sowie die Koerner Ceramics Gallery mit 600 europäischen Keramikobjekten. Geschichte Die Gründung des Museums erfolgte im Jahr 1947, als verschiedene Objekte der ethnografischen Sammlung der UBC im Keller der Universitätsbibliothek öffentlich ausgestellt wurden. Dr. Harry Hawthorn war der erste Direktor des neuen Museums, während seine Ehefrau Dr. Audrey Hawthorn als erste Kuratorin amtierte. 1971 erhielt das Museum finanzielle Zuwendungen von der kanadischen Regierung und der UBC, um ein neues Museumsgebäude errichten zu können. Dieses wurde vom renommierten kanadischen Architekten Arthur Erickson entworfen und im Jahr 1976 eröffnet. Walter und Marianne Koerner schenkten 1975 ihre umfangreiche Sammlung indianischer Kunst dem Museum, die heute noch einen großen Teil der ausgestellten Objekte ausmacht.

Museu de Antropologia (Vancouver)

O Museu de Antropologia na Universidade da Colúmbia Britânica perto de Vancouver é um museu canadiano. Para além de ser uma famosa atração turística, é também um museu de aprendizagem, usado por um número de cursos da Universidade da Colúmbia Britânica, e um museu de pesquisa. O museu localiza-se na Northwest Marine Drive, 6393, no campus da Universidade da Colúmbia Britânica, que oficialmente não fica dentro dos limites da cidade de Vancouver. História O museu foi fundado em 1947, quando os vários items da colecção etnográfica da Universidade da Colúmbia Britânica foram expostos na Biblioteca Principal. O Dr. Harry Hawthorn serviu como o primeiro director do novo museu, com a sua mulher Dr. Audrey Hawthorn servindo como a primeira curadora. Em 1971 o museu recebeu fundos do Governo do Canadá e a Universidade começou a construção de um novo edifício. Em 1976, o novo edifício, desenhado pelo renomado aquitecto canadiano Arthur Erickson, abriu sobre novo director, Michael Ames, que serviu de 1974 a 1997. O donativo de Walter e Marianne Koerner da sua colecção de arte das primeiras nações da costa noroeste formou uma grande parte dos conteúdos actuais do edificio. Em 1997 a Dr. Ruth Phillips tornou-se directora do museu. Em 2002 Michael Ames retomou o seu cargo como director e em 2004 foi o Dr. Anthony Shelton que ocupou o lugar. O Edifício O edificio de Arthur Erickson foi inspirado na arquitectura enxaimel das primeiras nações da costa noroeste. Como muito dos trabalhos de Erickson, a maior parte do edificio é de cimento.

Musqueam

I Musqueam sono una popolazione di nativi americani originari della Columbia Britannica, in Canada. Il loro attuale territorio è completamente compreso nell'area della città di Vancouver, ed è distribuito attorno alle sponde del fiume Fraser. In passato i Musqueam abitavano anche l'area del Burrard Inlet, ma furono scacciati dalla zona dall'avanzata degli Squamish e di altri popoli nativi. Per un breve periodo, nel XIX secolo, Squamish e Musqueam sono stati politicamente unificati dall'ascesa al potere del capo August Jack (noto anche come Qahtsahlano, che fu capo di entrambi i popoli. Dal punto di vista culturale e artistico hanno prodotto apparati funebri, maschere, totem con figure antropomorfe. Lingua La lingua tradizionale dei Musqueam, oggi quasi estinta, è lo hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓, un dialetto della lingua halkomelem, del gruppo Salish. La stessa lingua era parlata da altri gruppi etnici dell'area, come i Kwantlen e i Katzie; nella Columbia Britannica si trovano comunque altri dialetti simili, come lo Hulquminum, parlato dai Salish dell'Isola di Vancouver.

VCC–Clark station

VCC–Clark is an elevated station on the Millennium Line of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system. The station is named after the nearby Vancouver Community College (VCC) located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and serves as the western terminus of the Millennium Line. History VCC–Clark station's original plans called for it to be located underground below Broadway to the south of Vancouver Community College, but the City of Vancouver wanted the line to run to the north through an emerging technology zone on the False Creek Flats. The station was originally planned to open with the original portion of the Millennium Line in 2002, but the construction was delayed because of property issues as the station is located in a former railyard. Service at the station was slated to begin in the fourth quarter of 2005, but testing and commissioning of the station and related facilities continued during that time frame, with trial running of trains starting in mid-November that year. The station, designed by the architecture firms Francl Architecture and Stantec Architecture, officially opened in 2006. A limited-stop bus route, the 84, connects VCC–Clark to UBC to relieve the 99 B-Line bus route and the trolley buses on Broadway. Plans originally called for the Millennium Line to extend west along the Broadway corridor from VCC–Clark station to Granville Street and 10th Avenue with three additional stations. In 2006, it was revealed that this 5-kilometre (3.1 mi) extension would be placed on hold while priority was given to the Canada Line and Evergreen Extension. In 2018, a 5.7-kilometre (3.5 mi) extension west to Arbutus Street was approved with an estimated completion date of 2027. Station information Entrances VCC–Clark station is served by a single entrance located at the west end of the station. The entrance is located on the Keith Drive north of 6th Avenue. Transit connections VCC–Clark station is served by one bus connection: an express route to the University of British Columbia. References
N'Quatqua First Nation

The N'Quatqua First Nation (Lillooet: nk̓ʷʔáthamx), also known as the N'quatqua Nation, the N'Quatqua Nation, the Nequatque First Nation, the Anderson Lake Indian Band, the Anderson Lake First Nation and the Anderson Lake Band , is a First Nations government of the St'at'imc (Stl'atl'imx or Lillooet) people, located in the southern Coast Mountains region of the Canadian province of British Columbia at the community of D'Arcy, where the British Columbia Railway meets the head of Anderson Lake, about midway between the towns of Pemberton and Lillooet. Reserves Indian Reserves under the administration of the band are: Anderson Lake Indian Reserve No. 5, 594.6 ha. Nequatque Indian Reserve No. 1, effectively synonymous with the village of N'Quatqua, 177 ha., at the mouth of the Gates River into Anderson Lake. Nequatque Indian Reserve No. 2, 7.1 ha., on the east side of the Gates River 2 miles from Anderson Lake (at Devine) Nequatque Indian Reserve No. 3, 8.1 ha., on the west side of the Gates River 2 miles from Anderson Lake (at Devine Nequatque Indian Reserve No. 3A. 9.5 ha., on the west side of the Gates River 2.25 miles from Anderson Lake, south of and near IR No. 3 Nequatque Indian Reserve No. 4, 8 ha., on the east side of the Gates River 6 miles from Anderson Lake Population In 1996, the band had a registered population of 155. In 2001, the band's population had increased 9.7% to 170. Tribal council membership Unlike most other St'at'imc governments it is not a member of the Lillooet Tribal Council, the largest grouping of band governments of the St'at'imc people (aka the Lillooet people). Also broken away from the Lillooet Tribal Council are the three bands of the In-SHUCK-ch Nation on the lower Lillooet River and at the head of Harrison Lake. The N'quatqua Nation was originally part of the In-SHUCK-ch breakaway group but has since constituted itself separately, despite close family and cultural ties to the other bands of the In-SHUCK-ch and Lillooet Tribal Council. A third tribal council, the Lower Stl'atl'imx Tribal Council, incorporates the N'quatqua First Nation with the member nations of In-SHUCK-ch. History of the Lakes Lillooet At the farther end of Anderson Lake from Seton Portage, which is the location of three of the reserve communities of the Seton Lake First Nation, aka the Seton Lake Indian Band. Before the Indian reserve system was set in place by the Indian Act, the people of N'Quatqua and those of the various Seton Lake Band communities were considered a separate group within the Lillooet people, known as the Lakes Lillooet, Lx'lx'mx or Lexalexamux (see Chief Hunter Jack). In addition to N'quatqua, Nkiat, Slosh, Shalalth, and villages along Seton Lake now abandoned or disused, the foot of Seton Lake was also the territory of the Lakes Lillooet, in particular of the Oleman family. Since the Indian Act it has been under the control of the Lillooet Band, and is run as the public beach for Lillooet and its surrounding reserves and ranches.

Native Education College

Das Native Education College (NEC) ist ein College im westkanadischen Vancouver, in der East Fifth Avenue 285. Seine Geschäftsführung liegt bei der Urban Native Indian Education Society (UNIES), einer gemeinnützigen Organisation. Die Schwerpunkte des Colleges liegen auf der Erwachsenenbildung, frühkindlicher Bildung, Familienberatung und -hilfe, zugleich auf Landschaftsschutz, Tourismus, Recht, Betriebswirtschaft sowie Film- und andere Künste. Ausgangspunkt ist dabei die Vielfalt der Kulturen der Ureinwohner Kanadas, doch sind auch Studenten zugelassen, die keine Ureinwohner sind. Das Ausbildungszentrum besteht zwar schon seit 1967, doch werden höhere Bildungsgänge (post-secondary courses) erst seit 1979 angeboten, nachdem die heutige Geschäftsführung die Organisation 1979 übernahm. 1985 zog das NEC in ein Gebäude um, das viele Elemente des traditionellen Langhauses aufweist. Vor dem Gebäude steht ein Totempfahl von Norman Tait, einem Künstler der Nisga’a, eines Stammes im Nordwesten der Provinz British Columbia. Der Betrieb sollte zum 31. Juli 2007 eingestellt werden, wie der Chairman Häuptling David Walkem erklärte, da die Regierung ihre Förderrichtlinien geändert hatte, doch entschied acht Tage vor der Schließung das Ministry of Advanced Education, dass der Unterricht in privaten Colleges der Ureinwohner fortgesetzt und neu finanziert werden soll. Das College erhielt eine Zusage über 140.000 Dollar pro Jahr. Literatur V.

British Columbia

British Columbia (kaldt New Caledonia indtil omkring 1854):56 er en provins beliggende i det vestlige Canada ved Stillehavet. Vigtige byer foruden hovedstaden Victoria er Vancouver og Abbotsford. Provinsen har 4.095.900 indbyggere (2001), dækker et 944.735 km² stort areal og er dermed den tredjestørste af Canadas 10 provinser, både målt på befolkningstal og areal. Oprindelige folk udgør 6 % af befolkningen (tal fra 2016).:38 British Columbia fik status som provins i 1871. Økonomien har traditionelt været baseret på skovbrug. Med de første fund af guld i Canada 1858 begyndte et væddeløb blandt de mere end 30.000 guldgravere, som gik på guldjagt langs floden Fraser. De fleste kom fra guldfelterne i Californien. Af frygt for, at amerikanerne skulle overtage området, suspenderede den britiske regering det monopol, som Hudson's Bay Company hidtil havde haft, og erklærede direkte kontrol over området. Kronkolonien British Columbia blev udråbt af guvernør James Douglas i dronning Victorias navn den 19. november 1858. Ceremonien fandt sted på den øverste etage i The Big House i Fort Langley. Det er forklaringen på, at Fort Langley kaldes the Birthplace of B.C. I 1871 blev British Columbia optaget i det nye Dominion of Canada, hvis grænser nu gik fra Atlanterhavet til Stillehavet. Geografi Landskaber I syd ved vestkysten ligger øerne Vancouver Island, provinsens største ø, og i nord øhavet Haida Gwaii. Bjergkæden Coast Mountains følger parallelt British Columbias vestkyst. I syd ligger det tyndt befolkede Lower Mainland med Fraser Valley. Bjergkæden Rocky Mountains løber i grænseområdet til provinsen Alberta, og ved grænsen til USA's delstat Alaska, ligger provinsens højeste bjerg, det 4.663 meter høje Mount Fairweather. Floder og søer Provinsens længste floder er Columbia River, Fraser River og Peace River. Fraser River er en vigtig trafikåre i den sydlige del af provinsen. Overalt i provinsen er der bygget dæmninger over floder for at udnytte det strømmende vand til energiproduktion. Nogle af floderne er dog overladt til naturen for bl.a. at beskytte laksen. British Columbias største søer er Williston Lake, Kootenay Lake og Okanagansee. Referencer Eksterne henvisninger Aerenlund.dk
