At Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump in southwestern Alberta, Canada, Aboriginal people practiced a spectacularly successful form of group hunting for nearly 6,000 years before European contact.These video interviews feature Jack Brink, the author of _Imagining Head Smashed In: Aboriginal Buffalo Hunting on the Northern Plains_, and other archaeologists who excavated the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Brink's book was published by Athabasca University's AU Press in May of 2008. For more information about this book and others from AU Press, please visit http://www.aupress.ca/
