Karpa; island, the northeasternmost of the Shumagin group and at or near the 

 entrance to Stepovak bay. Called Buldyr (hovel) by the Russians. The 

 Aleut name is Inlikak, or, as Lutke writes it, Inglikhakh. Russian 

 Hydrographic chart 1379 (ed. of 1847) calls it Karpa (carp) island, while 

 Tebenkof, 1849, calls it Tangimak. Tangik is the Aleut word for wland 

 and Tangidak for islet. Thus this island has been called Boulder, Bouldyr 

 (hovel), Inglikhakh, Inlikak (perhaps from Ingliakun, inhiskers), Karpa 

 {carp) and Tangimak (Isletf).

 Admiralty chart 2431. Later the charts adopted Kasaan for the large 

 bay and retained Karta for this little bay at its head. Just east of it is 

 the Baranovich fishery, the salmon fishery of Philip Baranovich having 

 been established here in about 1878 or earlier.
