Do you want to hear stories about the little people? The little people and how they live? Any little things left behind when Inuit travel and move between camps will be touched by the little people.
This is what they were called a long time ago: little people. They were brother and sister, grandchild and grandparents all living together in a time when people got old very quickly. The little people would seek shelter in the things left behind by Inuit as they moved camps.
The little people were powerful and strong. They used polar bears to pull their sleds when they traveled. Their sleds were made out of stone. They were called little tiny people, these people who travelled in sleds made from very heavy rock. They had tremendous strength according to the stories told about them.
Once the little people decided to camp and spend the night under the cover of some camping gear that had been left by people who had moved on. They ate some cooked caribou meat that they had with them. When they traveled they would carry food with them rather than hunt along the way. They had young polar bears to use as dogs and to pull their sleds.
The next morning after they woke up they decided to load up their sleds after eating breakfast. While they were loading their heavy stone sleds, the old woman spit on the chest of a caribou that had been left under cover in the camp. She spit on the chest because she wanted to eat it. She didn’t need any help, but she had a hard time carrying the meat she took out by herself. She said to her husband, “Take this, it’s too heavy for me.” “Take this, it’s too heavy,” she said again. Her husband replied, “If it’s too heavy, then leave it here.?
In fact, it was too heavy and so they did leave it there. The old woman did not like leaving the meat behind that she had spat on, but it was too much of a load even though she had wanted it for her food.
Those little people had stone sleds and polar bears for dogs. They had a tremendous amount of strength according to the stories we have heard.
I don’t have anything more to say; I am finished.
I can add that the little people are not the same size as the tuniit people because they are different. Tuniit are the same size as humans today an dthey lived in rocky areas just as we do. Tuniit people build their homes where there are many rocks to allow them to go unseen. We have seen their homes in rocky areas, and we wondered what they were.
People are people every where and not animals. The tuniit are apart of us, they just get called a different name, the tuniit people. Big people are the size we are and they have no special name or descriptive titles. They are simply people: Inuit.
