Description
This page, from the EDSITEment-reviewed Arctic Studies Center, is an exhibition from the William J. Fisher collection (1879-1884) at the National Museum of Natural History. These articles and images document the festivals and spiritual ceremonies celebrated by the Alutiiq people of southern coastal Alaska during the winter months. This is the fifth of six pages presenting the first-hand account of an Alutiiq ceremony observed by a 19th-century churchman, along with images of Alutiiq artifacts drawn from the collection. Less
