	abstract = {<p>A wooden figurine recovered during archaeological excavations on the south coast of Baffin Island in 1977, was probably made by a prehistoric Thule culture Eskimo in the 13th century A.D., and is thought to be a depiction of a Viking man from Greenland. The clothing style shown on the figurine compares well with front-slit or gored tunics and yoked hoods of the l1th through 13th centuries. The carving also wears a cross on the chest. Reference to the Norse Sagas supports the contention that Viking Greenlanders landed on Baffin Island, which is probably the land mass referred to by them as \&$\#$39;Helluland\&$\#$39;. Although this artifact suggests contact between Baffin Island Thule people and Vikings from Greenland, there is insufficient evidence to discuss the significance of such contact.</p>},
