Geography
• Follow the Appalachians northeast, out of Maine, through New Brunswick, swim across Cabot Strait to the island, where you will find the western edge to be the last of the Appalachians.
• Easternmost part of Canada, across the Atlantic from Greenland, Iceland, Ireland, Portugal, UK, France, Spain
• Island about 43000 square miles surrounded by 10500 miles of coastline and cold sea.

Climate
• Cold, due to latitude and being surrounded by cold sea.
• More temperate than inland, due to tempering of the sea.
• Wet – proximity to ocean, as well as having lots of fresh-water bodies on the island and getting a lot of precipitation

Political Overview
• Europeans first noticed it in 1497, when John Cabot landed on the feast day of St. John in what is now the capital, St. John.
• Settled by Norse and western European sea-faring types –Portuguese, Irish, British, Spanish, French
• Island separated them from the inland and its issues, but still dealt with territory disputes between primarily French & English, like much of Canada
• Poor Irish came over mostly as labor.
• Speak almost entirely English, but have their own dialects, most of which sound very Irish.

culture!
![Page 8: Newfoundland ppt](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042602/559cdbec1a28abab408b46a3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Native Beothuk methods of
hunting/gathering/fishing
• Coastal existence
• Fish, seals, waterfowl
• Small boats
• Hunting land animals
• Forced inland by arrival of Europeans
• Lived on coast originally for a reason – hunting not so good away from the sea – starvation contributed to decline.

Initial use of land for fishing by Europeans
• Dealing with the natives
– Trade – lack of trust, no real trade with Beothuk
– Thievery – Whites would leave for winter and Beothukwould strip settlements of anything useful – then stopped waiting for them to leave
– Alliances – attempts at allying whites ended in bloodshed
– Exterminations – French allegedly armed & employed Micmac in helping to exterminate Beothuk from the north
– Present relationships with tribes – Beothuk are extinct –small numbers of other tribes live on the island

»Viking bear dogs from boats?
»Portuguese Water Dogs?

Evolution of fish preservation
• Salted on shore for sale in Europe
• Frozen on boats – no more need for salt-drying on shore
• Large factory style packing

Fish as the common denominator between
understood European food tradition and
available species.
• Importation of wild and domestic species after settlement , to supplement the fishing industry
– Today’s main plant crops: hay, potatoes, alfalfa, blueberries, rutabagas, and cabbage.
