DESCRIPTION
Storytellers are vital to the Inuit way of life, for they pass down traditions like hunting and akpik (cloudberry) picking, as well as the cultural understanding of those skills – the why and how they fit into the seasonal cycles of the natural world where every living thing is interconnected. That concept is beautifully illustrated on this fine silver coin’s reverse, which presents a visual story of interconnectedness viewed from above – a story that reflects the Inuit view of our place within nature, not apart from it.
