In 1999, we began the Iqaluktuuttiaq Place Names Project, interviewing Elders in the Elders Palace to locate names on maps, spell the names correctly, record the meanings of names, and record any stories or songs associated with names. Over the next two decades, it would become one of our longest running projects, beginning an ongoing partnership with the Geomatics and Cartographic Research Centre at Carleton University and leading to the creation of the online Kitikmeot Place Names Atlas ➡️ [ Ссылка ]
