User:Generalissima/Qitdlarssuaq

Qitdlarssuaq (c. 1795 – c. 1870) was an Inuit angakkuq who led a migration of family and followers from Cumberland Sound on Baffin Island to Northern Greenland following a blood feud. After murdering a man in the 1830s who sought vengeance on a close friend, he led a group of followers to Pond Inlet in North Baffin. Attacked by relatives of his victims, he continued with a group of fifty followers north to Devon Island. Learning from European whalers about the Inughuit territories in Northern Greenland, Qitdlarssuaq treked across Ellesmere Island and the Nares Strait before settling down. Possibly fleeing murder a second time, Qitdlarssuaq died c. 1870 on Ellesmere during an unsuccesful return to Baffin.
