content: Photo and description in Fienup-Riordan, Ann. 2007. Yuungnaqpiallerput, The Way We Genuinely Live: Masterworks of Yup'ik Science and Survival. Seattle: University Of Washington Press, p. 298. Arnartaq Qantaq Woman's Bowl. Woman's bowl made with a detachable bottom and separate upper rim. The painted square probably represents strips of gut sewn together to make a seal-gut window [for the qasgig]. Peter John [from Kwigillingok] exclaimed, "This bowl is so nice and well made! It is for a woman and has her design inside. Only women's bowls have upper parts like this. A skilled person really worked carefully on this." Illus. p. 105 in Fienup-Riordan Ann Alice Rearden and Marie Meade. 2023. Tengautuli Atkuk = the Flying Parka : The Meaning and Making of Parkas in Southwest Alaska.
