Inuit Tools & Weapons By Melina Idlout
Tools and Weapons of the Inuit • The Inuit use all different kinds of tools and weapons for survival. • The Inuit were very resourceful and used them for hunting, transportation, games, and other things they needed for survival.
The Thule Adaptation • The Thule adaptation to the Arctic was great. • Hunters killed huge whales that could feed a small community for a year. • They used umiaks to hunt and kill the bowhead whales. • They preserved the meat, blubber and baleen. • The Inuit houses were clustered in groups. • They were deep pits lined with boulders and whalebones. • You can visit a Qarmark house in Resolute Bay.
The Harpoon • A harpoon was used to hunt sea mammals like whales, seals and walrus. • This weapon is made out of a blade of bone, stone or iron. • The harpoon head and fore shaft was made of ivory or antler. • Today, they make the harpoon head from metal. • The men hunted animals with their harpoon by kayak in the open water or on foot in the winter and spring.
The Kakivak • The kakivak was used by the Inuit to spear the fish while they were in shallow water. • The Inuit could use the fish to feed their family as a way to survive.
A Bow Drill • A bow drill was used for carving. • The men carved combs, beads, thimbles, holders and bottle shaped needle cases. • Needles looked the same as our needles today, but they were carved of stone.
