    Extractions: The first people to behold the beauty of Nova Scotia are thought to have arrived around 2000 BC. They were the ancestors of the Micmac (or Mi'kmaq) tribes who inhabited Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island at the time of European contact. The first European to see Nova Scotia was John Cabot, who landed at Cape Breton Island in 1497. In the early 1600s, the French arrived, creating the first European settlements in what would become Canada. The Port Royal Habitation was established by Samuel de Champlain and Sieur de Monts in 1605 and the outpost managed to survive obstacles such as the harsh winter weather and scurvy, both of which killed a number of early settlers. In 1613, the English asserted their claim to the region: They not only founded their own settlement but actually destroyed Port Royal. Rights to the area would remain in dispute until the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, when France gave up most of its claims and the land became England's. Many French settlers (known as Acadians) remained in Nova Scotia and other Maritime provinces, however. Continued wars between France and England created distrust on the part of the English, who in the 1750s demanded that the Acadians swear allegiance to the English crown. When the Acadians refused, most of them were forced to leave. (Many of the exiles ended up in parts of what is now Louisiana.) Some Acadians were allowed to return at the end of the Seven Years' War (1763), when France was ousted from Canada permanently.

    Extractions: The establishment of the Nova Scotian Institute of Natural Science in 1862 marked the beginnings of professional archaeology in the province. The Institute held bimonthly meetings, organized field trips and published member's papers in the Proceedings and Transactions . It provided the organization for persons with archaeological interests and was in large part responsible for the archaeological fluorescence of the following five decades. The first articles published by the Institute reflect a problem-oriented approach to the excavation and description of archaeological sites in which site locations were sought, excavated and commented upon in relation to a specific scientific theory. Two of these early articles were "On the Occurrence of the Kjoekkenmoedding, on the Shores of Nova Scotia", which reports on the shell middens of St. Margarets Bay and Cole Harbour, and another account of a shell midden in an 1863 article by Reverend James Ambrose - "Some Accounts of the Petrel - the Sea Serpent - and the Albicore - as Observed at St. Margarets Bay - Together with a Few Observations on a Beach Mound, or Kitchen Midden, near French Village." These early articles display a good knowledge of the archaeological techniques of the day and illustrate that a healthy exchange of information with institutions such as the Smithsonian was occurring. The next series of articles published by the Nova Scotian Institute of Science showed a decline in archaeological research with the focus shifting to purely descriptive accounts that contributed little to an understanding of the prehistoric period. Gilpin described the Mi'kmaq of Nova Scotia using Lescarbot's
