Description: This Inunait or Inuit parka/anorak is typical of an Inuit woman's parka from the early 1900s and was made from the thin skins of summer caribou (the summer skin is short, mostly consisting of tight underwool). The parka has 2 extra layers to provide additional warmth to its user. It is today part of the permanent collection of the UBC Museum of Anthropology in Vancouver, Canada.
