Map and Journey

Nuligak (c.1895-1966) was born at a camp near the mouth of the Mackenzie River. He spent much of his life travelling through the western Canadian Arctic, which is the homeland of the Inuvialuit.

Nuligak was one of the first Inuvialuit to learn to read and write. In his autobiography, "I, Nuligak", he wrote about many of the places featured in this exhibit.
