[Canadian Inuit sculpture] . : R72-208/1990J-PDF
The people of the Thule culture (ancestors of today's Inuit) migrated from northern Alaska around 1,000 A.D. and drove or wiped out the earlier Dorset inhabitants. Thule art was based on Alaskan prototypes; it included some human and animal figures, but consisted primarily of the graphic embellishment of utilitarian objects such as combs, needle cases, harpoon toggles and gaming pieces. The decorative or figurative incised markings on these objects do not seem to have had religious significance.
