She is shown bending forward with a child wrapped in the amaut pouch on the back of her parka, and carrying a large stone cooking lamp in her hands, resting it on the ground in front of her.

The small stone pot (part c) is rectangular, with a twisted, rigid sinew rope tied though holes at each corner.
