A collection of forty-one Inuit songs from Eskimo Point, Northwest Territories, featuring three genres: ajajait (personal songs), animal songs, and songs sung by children playing games.

41 songs recorded in Spring 1977 which document the traditional genres of the ajajait, of the animal songs and of the children's game songs. Includes words, in syllabics and translated, and music.

"Transcriptions and investigations of traditional songs from the Thule Area recorded by Erik Holtved in 1937 and Michael Hauser and Bent Jensen in 1962. Further investigations with music examples of traditional songs from the Uummannaq-Upernavik Areas, the Baffin Island Areas and the Copper Inuit Areas."

Once an integral feature of the culture and economy of the St. Francis Abenaki at Odanak, splint basketry has become an activity of the elderly. This volume examines the reasons for this change as indicated by alterations to basketry style and construction between 1880 and the present and the influence of historical events.

Three Oneida stories (The Widower and His Little Girl, The Young Flirt, and Why the Bear Has No Tail) are presented with an interlinear translation and a morpheme-by-morpheme analysis.

This volume describes a modern Nootka community from a historical perspective. Despite evidence of significant change over time with respect to material culture, technology, and political institutions, considerable continuity exists insofar as codes of social interaction, community values and ideals are concerned.
