These timetables allow students of the Circumpolar North's history to see how the various parts of the North developed at the same time.

The files are in Adobe® pdf format. You will need Adobe Acrobat® Reader (download for free) to view or print these files. Clicking on a file link will give you the option of viewing or saving the file.

I'll admit that it is pretty much impossible to ever complete this project. If you know of any dates or events I should include here, please let me know. You may e-mail me at agraham --at-- yukoncollege.yk.ca

In the timetables, you'll find events listed in five columns (see the figure below). The first contains the year, the second is titled "Russia." The third is "Northern Europe" and I have included Icelandic events here. The fourth is "North America" and I include Greenlandic events here. The final column, "Other," is for global or more strictly circumpolar events. Entries have small dingbat bullets, to identify the region and may have further bullets (a bomb indicates war, a flag indicates treaties, conventions or acts of legislatures, a snowflake indicates the environment and climate, a hand with a pen indicates a chart, map or image, and a book indicates a publication), etc.

All the files have bookmarks (unless I've forgotten them). The bibliography has active weblinks where the reference is to a web page.
