                        Inuit ocean hunters used animal skin boats called <em>qajait</em> which
100 
                        were extraordinarily buoyant. European travelers copied the
101 
                        properties of the boats along with the name, thus the creation of
102 
                        the <em>kayak</em>. Inuit also made <em>umiaq</em>, a larger version of the kayak.

                        Dog sleds were the primary means of land travel - in Inuktitut,
108 
                        <em>qamutiit</em>, singular <em>qamutiq</em>. The husky dog breed comes from Inuit
109 
                        breeding of dogs for transportation.

262 ira 114 
                        Inuit used the natural landscape to navigate on land. Where natural
115 
                        landmarks were insufficient, the Inuit would erect an <em>inukshuk</em>, a
116 
                        stone landmark used as a milestone or directional marker. These
117 
                        stone markers were created in the figure of a man.
