ESKIMO FIGURES

Dr. Boas in his paper on Cat's-Cradle among the Eskimos of Cumberland Sound (1, p. 229) gives drawings of the three following figures:

(1) Ukaliaqdjung = a Hare (Fig. 842). This figure is very like the Eskimo "Cariboo," turned upside down.

(2) Amaroqdjung = a Wolf (Fig. 843).

(3) Qaqaqdjung Sesinging = a Hill and two Ponds (Fig. 844).
