<p>[QUOTE="Mark London, post: 4386671, member: 346"]The first group of symbols is the artists' signature in Inuktitut syllabics. They seem to read ka la i but I cannot find any artists by that name from either Sanikiluaq or neigbouring Great Whale River. As Komokwa pointed out, one does not fish for seal, they are harpooned, which is why I mentioned that the implements might be incorrectly positioned.
