Unit 2: St. Lawrence Island Yupik

These next few weeks, we will be covering dances from the St. Lawrence Island area. However, as I mentioned in the last unit, many songs were exchanged among the Iñupiat people and the Siberian Yupik and St. Lawrence Island Yupik people. This makes categorizing songs into a single culture difficult. This video gives some background information about St. Lawrence Island drumming and dancing.
