1952 Map of Nunivak Island B-3

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Nunivak Island shorelines along the Etolin Strait are documented here in a series of mid-century surveys that capture the seasonal settlement patterns of the region. The map details several indigenous summer camps, including Kuvlomiut, Daprakmiut, and Kaneetaksmiut, which were situated near coastal points like Kangnaksnak Pt and the mouth of the Kuveejinaguk River. These sites suggest a traditional lifestyle revolving around the resources of the Bering Sea. The entire land area is contained within the Nunivak National Wildlife Refuge, featuring a complex network of coastal features such as Kangeekiksathatuk Cove and Dunulimjingia Pt. Inland, the terrain is defined by small waterways like Valvekalik Creek, illustrating a landscape largely untouched by permanent industrial development during this era.
