Walrus Ivory carving made by a man known as Uncle John, Cup'ig from Nunivak Island.Red and black pigments are also used for this beautiful piece. Similar carvings in this fashion were made into cribbage boards as early as 1910 by the peoples of Nunivak Island. #CulturalHeritage #culturalexchange | Alaska Native Heritage Center
