Abstract
This article presents the sharing of traditional knowledge by Mariano Aupilardjuk, respected Elder from Rankin Inlet, concerning Inuit working and hunting tools, and describes these using examples from his own collection of miniature tools. These tools are typical examples of the variety of Inuit tools that exist and illustrate the complexity of Inuit traditional knowledge associated with them.
