nanook

In Inuit mythology, Nanook ((イヌクティトゥット語:ᓇᓄᖅ),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ᓇᓄᖅ )〕 ,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=nanuq )lit. "Polar Bear") was the master of bears, meaning he decided if hunters deserved success in finding and hunting bears and punished violations of taboos.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.livingdictionary.com/search/viewResults.jsp?language=en&searchString=%26%235319%3B%26%235316%3B%26%235509%3B&languageSet=language_si&dialectSet=all&typeSet=all&subjectCategorySet=all&sourceSet=all )〕 The word was popularized by ''Nanook of the North'', the first feature-length documentary.
The Inuit believed that Nanuk, the Polar Bear, was powerful and mighty and that he was "almost man," and the Inuit hunters would worship this great bear because they believed that he decided if the Hunters would be successful or not that day. “In the past, the Inuit ate polar bear meat and used the fur to make warm trousers for men and kamiks (soft boots) for women”.〔("The Inuit and Polar Bears." ) Polar Bears International. N.p., n.d. Web. 19 Nov. 2013.〕 Respect was given to Nanuk by the hunter hanging the bear’s hide in a special section of his igloo, where it would stay for several days. They would also offer the bear’s spirit weapons and other hunting tools if it was a male, and needle cases, scrapers (used to scrape the fat off hides) and knives if it was female. “Native people believed that polar bears allowed themselves to be killed in order to obtain the souls of the tools (tatkoit), which they would take with them into the hereafter.”〔 “Legend says that if a dead polar bear was treated properly by the hunter, it would share the good news with other bears so they would be eager to be killed by him. Bears would stay away from hunters who failed to pay respect.”〔
