November is Native American Heritage Month, a time for acknowledging and celebrating the rich ancestry and continuing contributions of Alaska Native and other Indigenous peoples.
In this clip, men demonstrate the techniques of cutting, steaming, bending, and binding wood to create a dog sled, circa 1955. The film was shot in the area of Unalakleet in western Alaska on the Norton Sound of the Bering Sea. Unalakleet has long been a major trade center between the Athabascan people of Interior Alaska and coastal Iñupiat (Color/Silent/16mm film).
