Focuses on the role of health and disease in the history of Alaska from earliest times to 1900, with primary emphasis on Alaska native people. Specific objectives: 1) to reconstruct as fully as possible the diseases from which the Alaska natives suffered around the time of first European contact and before western culture had a strong influence on health; 2) to discuss health aspects of the early recorded history of Alaska, including the beginnings of medical care and the impact of disease and death on historical events; and, 3) to trace in chronological fashion the introduction and spread of certain diseases which have had a profound influence on the lives of the peoples of Alaska, both Native and Caucasian.
