Alaska Journal of Anthropology. 15 (1&2) : 25-48. Identified there is wooden kayak paddler figurine [for kayak model]. From p. 37: "A wooden figurine from Miyowagh attests that St. Lawrence Island kayakers wore wooden visors with their parka hoods pulled over them .... Visors of this type are not ethnographically known on St. Lawrence but are fairly typical for coastal Alaska, the Aleutian Chain, and the Kodiak Archipelago. The long, protruding shape of this visor again brings to mind Aleutian bentwood hats."
