WALRUS TUSKS AND IVORY CARVINGS 



Walrus tusks are very scarce, and consequently ivory-carving is almost a lost art among the 

 Eskimos. The picture shows men, women, sledges, dogs, a kajak, seals, birds, and various small 

 animals and tools made from walrus-ivory by the Okak Eskimos. 



FOUND IN HEATHEN GRAVES 



The heathen Eskimos always buried pots and tools with the dead. A large trough-shaped stone 

 lamp and a square stone cooking-pot, a harpoon head, a fishhook, a shoulder-bone for scraping 

 skins, and knives and arrows of flint. In the foreground are several toys found in a child's grave.
