content: Illus. Fig. 9 p. 35 (under incorrect # 355338) in Anichtchenko, Evguenia. 2017. "Reconstructing The St. Lawrence Island Kayak; From Forgotten Watercraft to a Bering Sea Maritime Network." Alaska Journal of Anthropology. 15 (1&2) : 25-48. Identified there: "The gunwales of the model from the Seklowaghyaget site ... presumably dating to the Punuk period, are joined at the stem but divided at the stern, which has a distinctly transom shape. This miniature is particularly remarkable as it appears to be the earliest known representation of a double-hatch kayak from the Bering Sea region".
