Book excerpt: "For nearly fifty years now, various anthropologists have been concerned with the genesis of the "hunting group" and the 'hunting territory system" as found among native peoples in northeastern North America. The results of their work have led to two major contrasting views regarding the origin of the hunting group and hunting territory. One theory states that these phenomena were aboriginal, predating European contact. The other theory is that they resulted from contact with Europeans, especially through the aegis of the fur trade."--Introduction.
