angakok

One angakok throws her with his harpoon, another631 one stabs her, and by this means they cut off all the transgressions.

The thong is attached to the end of a stick which is held in hand by the angakok.

The performance of a self-confident angakok is quite impressive—if one has not witnessed it too many times before.

The angakok is generally not loved—he knows too many unpleasant things that are going to happen, so he says.

The business of the angakok is mainly singing incantations and going into trances, for he has no medicines.
