This doll was collected from Inuinnait living along the Coronation Gulf around 1915 by the Canadian Arctic Expedition’s anthropologist, Diamond Jenness. After being displayed in Cambridge Bay by the Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq (Kitikmeot Heritage Society) it’s now being returned to the Canadian Museum of History to make room for new incoming loan objects. The new exhibit will serve as research tools for a new series of community cultural revitalization workshops on crimped shoe making, the creation and use of amulets, and Inuinnaqtun terminology surrounding ancestral Inuinnait traditions and technologies. A workshop of local elders and language experts also took place this summer to help interpret objects. (Photo courtesy of Pitquhirnikkut Ilihautiniq / Kitikmeot Heritage Society)
