"A Place Where They Hunt With Bolas"

Qilavittarvik is a low flat area where people hunted geese in spring with qilavittautit, or bolas.

Qilavittautit are made by tying weights to the end of strings. A hunter swings it around a few times and then throws it towards a bird. The whole thing gets tangled around the bird, which causes it to fall to the ground.
