Liam på ni skød sit første rensdyr: Mor er stolt På 200 meters afstand fik Liam ramt på sit første rensdyr. Han bar endda dyret selv ned til båden.

The first reindeer a boy shoots is an important ritual!

It shows he is going to be a hunter who can feed his family. Normally he will be around 12 years old but in the linked story the boy is only 9.

Nowadays both boys and girls take part in this ritual.

Grl is not part of the EU but their laws are generally compatible with DK/EU law.
1) A lot of Danish law is directely copied.
2) Grl. are danish citizens, they follow the same standards as Denmark.
3)EU import rules are very strict. If you want to export eg. fish, you follow EU legislation.

In Greenland babys half birthday (at 6 months) is an important celebration.

If a baby survived this important milestone, there was a good chance that it would thrive and live to see many birthdays.

Greenlandic is closely related to Canadian Inuit languages such as Inuktitut. 1) variety is Kalaallisut, or West Greenlandic. 2) variety is Tunumiit oraasiat, or East Greenlandic. The language of the Inughuit (Thule Inuit), Inuktun or Polar Inuit, is a recent arrival and a dialect of Inuktitut.

2) Arn. was probably born around 1896 to a nomadic family. Her father died when she was around 7 y.o. Her mother, Aleqasersuaq, would not be able to feed them all and to avoid them all suffering a slow hunger-death she decided to end her daughters life. Her brothers pleading saved her life.

Shortly after arriving in Denmark, she was diagnosed with tuberculosis and was immediately hospitalized. She stayed until 1925, receiving the Silver Medal of Merit.

She returned to Thule and married Karl Peary (son of Robert Peary). She was weakened by tuberculosis and died in 1933 at the age of 37

Black and white photo of Arnarulunnguaq, probably from around 1924.
She is seen in a hat, fashionable at the time, and a european coat. She is smiling at the camera looking slightly to one side.

1) Many have the impression that Arctic exploration was mens work. The best and most successful expeditions (looking at you Kunuunnguaq) had women aboard.

The best known woman is probably Arnarulunnguaq/den lille kvinde/the small woman.
