AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
In 1919, while Cadzow was conducting an expedition in the Mackenzie river district, he encountered a small party of Copper Inuits and obtained from them the implements and weapons described in this article. As the article is limited to the description of a specific group of artifacts, it is by no means a comprehensive treatment of Inuit material culture.
