Here is an Alaska native Yupik Eskimo carving done by James Sugar Sr. of the village of Emmonak, Alaska. The carving is on a wood base. It measures approximately 13.5 inches long. The wooden kayak or baidarka measures five inches long. There are two soapstone seals and three soapstone pieces which resemble ice. This diorama scene shows the hunter poised to harpoon a seal.
