The Need for Museum Educators In Medical Education
Two demonic figures climbing on a a tent. Shapes shown in black ink on cream paper as silhouettes. In lower left are 10 lines of small handwritten letters in Inuktitut writing. Writing translates to English: The Torngat that come knocking in the night. This story was terrifying when my father and grandmother told it. I mean, it was very scary. Long ago, in a tent, when they still used sealskin tents, as darkness fell, these creatures would scratch at the tent. The people were so scared that they couldn’t speak a word. They must’ve been the devils children, his daughters or his sons. No one dared to leave during this time. They circled the tent all night long, scratching at it. It would eventually stop in the dead of night.
