"From Atteqin, where I visited Ajukuttååq, I made a Day Excursion to the larger island of Kulusuk, where there are one or two settlements. It is particularly well known that the last reindeer in this area were shot there. The interior of the island contains two plains with inland lakes, connected by a pass, and across this pass the ruins extend from one of the ramparts used for reindeer hunting. It has been built of stone and turf, as high as the chest of a human being, but now only the stones remain, at a height of barely a foot. Through the open gate in the middle of it the reindeer, which came in flocks from the highlands, were driven forward, and as they ran through, they were then shot with a bow and arrow."
