The Pre-Dorset is a loosely defined term for a Paleo-Eskimo culture or group of cultures that existed in the Eastern Canadian Arctic from c. 3200 to 850 cal BC, and preceded the Dorset culture. Due to its vast geographical expanse and to history of research, the Pre-Dorset is difficult to define. The term was coined by Collins (1956, 1957) who recognised that there seemed to be people that lived in the Eastern Canadian Arctic prior to the Dorset, but for whose culture it was difficult to give the defining characteristics. Hence, for Collins and others afterward, the term is a catch-all phrase for all occupations of the Eastern Canadian Arctic that predated the Dorset. To Taylor (1968) and Maxwell (1973), however, the Pre-Dorset were a distinct cultural entity, ancestral to the Dorset, and

rdfs:comment	De Pre-Dorsetcultuur was een Paleo-Eskimocultuur uit het oostelijke arctische gebied in Noord-Amerika van ongeveer 2500 of 2000 tot 800 of 500 v.Chr, voorafgaand aan de Dorsetcultuur. De Pre-Dorsetcultuur maakte deel uit van de Arctic small tool tradition, die wellicht kort voor 2500 v.Chr. over de Beringstraat naar Alaska is gekomen. De Pre-Dorset leefden van de jacht op kleinere zeezoogdieren, rendieren en klein wild, en woonden in tenten en mogelijk ook in iglo's. Oorspronkelijk leefden ze aan de kust, maar toen rond 1500 v.Chr. het klimaat begon af te koelen trokken ze naar het zuiden, het binnenland in.

has abstract	El Pre-Dorset es un término vagamente definido para una cultura o grupo de culturas paleoesquimales que existieron en el Ártico oriental canadiense entre el 4500 y el 2700 a. C., y que precedieron a la cultura Dorset. Debido a su gran extensión geográfica y a la historia de la investigación, el Pre-Dorset es difícil de definir. El término fue acuñado por Collins (1956, 1957), quien reconoció que parecía haber gente que vivía en el Ártico oriental canadiense antes del Dorset, pero para cuya cultura era difícil dar las características definitorias. Por lo tanto, para Collins y otros posteriores, el término es una frase comodín para todas las ocupaciones del Ártico oriental canadiense anteriores a los Dorset. Sin embargo, para Taylor (1968) y Maxwell (1973), los Pre-Dorset eran una entidad cultural distinta, ancestral a los Dorset, y que vivía en el Bajo Ártico de Canadá con una serie de incursiones en el Alto Ártico. En el yacimiento de Port Refuge, en el Archipiélago Ártico Canadiense en la isla Devon, McGhee (1979) distinguió dos conjuntos de ocupaciones, uno que atribuyó a la cultura Independencia I, y otro a la Pre-Dorset. Debido a la mala conservación del material orgánico y al hecho de que los huesos de los mamíferos marinos pueden parecer más antiguos con la datación por radiocarbono que su edad real —efecto del depósito marino—, suele ser difícil datar los yacimientos del Ártico. Pero el asentamiento de Independencia I está varios metros por encima del nivel del mar, y McGhee consideró que esto significaba que el asentamiento de Independencia I era aproximadamente 300 años más antiguo que el de Pre-Dorset en Port Refuge. De hecho, suponiendo que los asentamientos estén siempre cerca del agua, ya que el nivel del mar descendió a lo largo de los siglos, es por el motivo que se espera que los sitios más antiguos estén más arriba del nivel del mar. La mayoría de los rasgos que McGhee creía diferentes entre los asentamientos Pre-Dorset e Independencia I de Port Refuge son problemáticos y no pueden utilizarse sistemáticamente para distinguir su filiación cultural. Se ha sugerido que Pre-Dorset e Independencia I son partes de la misma cultura. (es) The Pre-Dorset is a loosely defined term for a Paleo-Eskimo culture or group of cultures that existed in the Eastern Canadian Arctic from c. 3200 to 850 cal BC, and preceded the Dorset culture. Due to its vast geographical expanse and to history of research, the Pre-Dorset is difficult to define. The term was coined by Collins (1956, 1957) who recognised that there seemed to be people that lived in the Eastern Canadian Arctic prior to the Dorset, but for whose culture it was difficult to give the defining characteristics. Hence, for Collins and others afterward, the term is a catch-all phrase for all occupations of the Eastern Canadian Arctic that predated the Dorset. To Taylor (1968) and Maxwell (1973), however, the Pre-Dorset were a distinct cultural entity, ancestral to the Dorset, and that lived in the Low Arctic of Canada with a number of incursions into High Arctic. At the site of Port Refuge on the Grinnell Peninsula, Devon Island, McGhee distinguished two sets of occupations, one that he ascribed to the Independence I culture, the other to Pre-Dorset. Due to the often poor preservation of organic material and the fact that bones from marine mammals can appear older with radiocarbon dating than their actual age (the marine reservoir effect), it is typically difficult to date Arctic sites. But the Independence I settlement is several metres higher above sea level, and McGhee took this to mean that the Independence I settlement was roughly 300 years older than the Pre-Dorset one at Port Refuge. Indeed, assuming that settlers are always close to the water, because sea levels fell over the centuries, older sites are expected to lie higher above the sea. Most features that McGhee believed different between the Pre-Dorset and Independence I settlements of Port Refuge are problematic and cannot systematically be used to distinguish their cultural affiliation. It has been suggested that Pre-Dorset and Independence I are parts of the same culture.
