Description |
English: Handwritten on album page: Whale bone inside mouth. Whales breathe between these bow shaped bones through the top of their heads. This is called spouting - steam from their breath and not water. PH Coll 49.33 The photographs from this album document many aspects of Eskimo life at Kingegan, and Bernardi's handwritten notes serve as informative captions. Hunting and fishing activities, which include whaling and sealing, feature prominently in the album, as well as the caches used to store meat, boats, and other valuable objects safely. The reindeer herds imported from Siberia are also documented. |
