HUNTING CULTURE FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS
Since the first wave of immigration via Thule around 4-5000 years ago, the Inuits in Greenland have been dependent on nature’s resources in the form of fish, birds, land mammals and marine mammals.
Hunting and fishing have therefore always been a question of survival in a country in which the summer is short and the climate unsuitable for effective farming.

UNIQUE HUNTING TOOLS AND VESSELS
…to make the tools that could mean the difference between life and death. Throughout the generations, the Inuit cultures managed to create and refine unique products such as the kayak, the women’s knife known as the ulo, the soapstone lamp and harpoons, bird spears and high quality clothing made of animal hide and fur.
The fact that even compacted snow could be used to build a temporary shelter in the form of the igloo bears witness to an extraordinary ability to utilise nature’s own materials.
