 kaiak, above the latter an outline of the human figure with arms jiartiy 

 extended, as in gesture for surjyrise. The upjier edge or rim has some decora- 

 tion consisting of rude short lines arranged diagonally, though crossing at right

 Drill Bow. Norton Sound. L. M. Turner. 24543. But one side and the bottom

 animals. At the left end is a kaiak, the occupant of which is after a large bird 

 and two walrus. Upon the bottom edge are four hunters, each in his kaiak, after 

 four whales, three of which have been harpooned. The hunters are represented 

 as holding their paddles horizontally above the head, the gesture or signal that 

 they have cast the spear or harjioou, and also to indicate "assistance wanted" 

 in so far that the animal may be kept sight of and not permitted to escape.
