Inuit Women (Eskimos) In Umiak (Women'S Boat) At Port Epworth. The Umiak May Be One Of The Earliest Forms Of Coastal Watercraft Used And Developed During Migratory Periods Between Siberia And Alaska. When Migratory Pattern Became More Settled The Kayak Developed In The North, And The Large Dugout Canoes Common To The Coastal Areas Of British Columbia Developed In The South.
