Summary
[edit]DescriptionTopek construction Plover Bay Whymper.PNG |
English: Shows the construction of a topek (Yupik Eskimo summer house) at Plover (Provideniya) Bay, Chukotka, Russia. The author describes this as a Chukchi house, but by most evidence the natives at Plover Bay were Yupik, though they had adopted some chukchi practices. This house is in the style of a Topek since it is assymetric and slope-roofed rather than dome shaped like a Chukchi Yaranga. |
