Erma Tomaganuk
(Pulavilngeq)
Erma Tomaganuk is originally from Scammon Bay, but she
moved to
Hooper Bay a long time ago. "I married when I was 19 years old," she
said. "We lived in those days in sod and wood houses over in the
mountains. Our windows were made with seal intestines, and grass was
used as insulation in the holes of the houses; our blankets were made
of bird skins (and feathers). We ate white fish and many other kinds
of fish. We ate only fresh foods then. We used to travel by dog
sleds, and we stayed at our fish camps in the winter time. In the
summer time we used to go to Cape Romanzoff and there we caught
herring fish and tomcods. Some other things we used to eat in the
summer time were eggs, birds and clams. Now we miss eating birds
because there are hardly any around these days. The men used to
travel by kayak then. And people only burned wood in their stoves
-- they had no gas or oil in
those days. They never used to wear shoes, only mukluks and fish skin
boots. Our parkas were made of bird skins (with the feathers) and
muskrat skins."
"I did not go to school. At the age of 50, I was taught
how to
speak and write in English by Neva Rivers. But only for one year.
