Objectif(s): To establish, through oral history, the macro- and micro-settlement patterns of the Cumberland Sound Inuit during the Whaling Era. Elerly informants will be questioned about the locations, and factors influencing their selection of 1)sites around the sound, and 2)dwellings within settlements. The ultimate aim of this research is to formulate a model of Inuit sociopolitical organization during the Whaling Era that could be tested against the pre-contact Thule archaeological record.
