Originally catalogued as made of sealskin, but this is not correct; appears to be caribou.Illus. p. 97 in Turner, Lucien M., Scott A. Heyes, and K. M. Helgen. 2014. Mammals of Ungava & Labrador: the 1882-1884 fieldnotes of Lucien M. Turner together with Inuit and Innu knowledge. Identified there as "Caribou skin sleeping bag (1884). A sleeping bag used and collected by Turner at Ft. Chimo. He noted that the sleeping bag was a European concept co-opted by some Inuit. It measures 7' x 3' x 8". Turner wrote about its comfort: "The Arctic traveler who has once indulged in sleep within the soothing folds of a soft reindeer skin sleeping-bag will be loath to expose himself to the vagaries of an uncomfortable bed and shifting blankets." Turner (1887a: 703) noted that pogaluk was the Inuit word for sleeping bag." Sleeping bag is also further described on pp. 96-97 of the publication.
