	History Of Inuit Art
		The Thule period was brought to light by the work of Therkel Mathiassen, a Danish archaeologist who undertook the archeological studies during his travels with Knud Rasmussen on the Fifth Thule Expedition, 1921 to 1924; in so doing he made one of the most radical and significant finds in Arctic archeology.
		It is estimated that the Thule people, traveling from northern Alaska along the Arctic coast and through the high Arctic islands, reached northwest Greenland around 1100 A.D. Moving south, they came in contact with Viking settlers on the southwest coast of Greenland.
		The Thule people camped in skin tents during the summer, like their Dorset ancestors, and almost certainly adapted from the Dorset people the practice of building snowhouses for temporary winter quarters, as snowhouses were not part of the Alaskan way of life.

		The Thule people, however, also used a type of winter dwelling that was unknown to the peoples of Alaska, the domed snowhouse.

		Apparently the Thule were better adapted to the Arctic than the Dorset--they hunted a broader range of animals, perhaps had a more flexible sociopolitical organization, and had a generally more technologically efficient culture which included dogsleds, bows and arrows, and boats.

		Most of the whale bones have been removed as souvenirs or as carving material, holes have been dug by people searching for artifacts, and the largest village was damaged by the construction of a gravel parking area and viewing platform built for the 1970 visit of the Royal Family.

	Helluland/Markland Environment
		The native peoples who lived in these areas seem to have adapted, moved, or disappeared with the ebb and flow of the shifting climate.

		The loss of whales forced Thule people to shift from whaling to ice-hole seal hunting throughout much of the central arctic.

	Ancient whalers leave their mark on the north, Alaska Science Forum

		Though the Thule people left the area about 400 years ago, Smol and his colleagues found that the ancient people have changed the water chemistry of local lakes and Thule homesites are still affecting lakes today.
		The Thule people left the site about 400 years ago, probably due to a decline in bowhead whales caused by the increasing summer ice cover, Savelle said.
