"An Eskimo Legend.—Nov. 1, 1894. Nooktah relates to me the following legendary conversation between an Eskimo and a raven flying over with something in its mouth. '
Sunah kingmiahpeu?' ('What have you in your mouth?') asks the man. '
Inukkoktooah mahmaktoksuah. Eeoquaw; eeoquaw' ('The thigh-bone of a man. It is very sweet. Caw, caw'), answers the raven." From
Northward Over the "Great Ice" by Robert E. Peary, 1898. (Note that the tea pot that steams brown bread and defrosts apple sauce technically relates to a previous paragraph.)
