I divided the story into 5 parts and I provided some pictures p ictures that tells the flow or the summary of the story. I will group you into 5, each will perform a short skit about the chosen part of the story. This will help you to fully understand the story. Keesh lived at the edge of the polar sea.

year, a new sun returns, so it might be warm again. The father of Keesh had been a brave man. But he had died hunting for food. Keesh was his only son. Keesh lived along with his mother, Ikeega. One night, the village council met in the big Igloo of Klosh-kwan, the chief. He listened, then he waited for silence. He said, “It is true that you give us some meat. But it is often old

and tough meat, and has many bones.” The KLOSH- hunters were surprised. This was a child speaking against them. The council ordered Keesh to go to bed. Keesh jumped to his feet. “Hear me!” he cried. “Never shall I speak in the council igloo again. I shall go hunt meat like my father, Bok.” There was much laughter when Keesh spoke of hunting. The laughter followed Keesh as he left the council meeting. The next day, Keesh started out for the shore, where the land meets the ice. Those who
watched saw that he carried his bow and many arrows. Across his shoulder was his father’s big big hunting spear. Again there was laughter. One day passed, then a second. On the third day, a great wind blew. There was no sign of Keesh. His mother, Ikeega, put burned seal oil on her

face to show her sorrow. The women shouted at their men for letting the little boy go. The men made no answer, but got ready to search for the body of Keesh. Early next morning, Keesh walked into the village. Across his shoulders was fresh meat. His mother was very happy. Keesh, trying to be a man, said to her mother that he would sleep because he was tired. There was much talk after Keesh went to his igloo. The killing of a bear was dangerous. But it was three times more dangerous to kill a mother bear with cubs. The men did not believe Keesh had done so. But the women pointed to the fresh meat. At last, the men agreed to go for the meat that was left. But they were not very happy. So began the mystery of Keesh. Then there was talk of magic and witchcraft in the village. Keesh continued to bring meat m eat to the village. Some people thought he was a great hunter. There was talk of making him chief, after old Klosh-Kwan. They waited, hoping he would come to council meetings. But he never came. The council sat up late talking

on him. On Keesh’s next trip, two young hunters, Bim and Bawn, followed him. After five days, they returned. The council met to hear their story, then the two hunters reported what they had seen. Klosh-kwan led the council to the igloo of Keesh. Keesh told the people in the village how he had killed the bears.

bones as knives into circles, then put some seal meat inside them, then put them in the snow to freeze. The bear had eaten the ball of meat with the circle of bone inside. When the meat got inside the bear, the meat got warm, and the bone went snap! The sharp points made the bear sick. It is easy to kill them. Keesh used headcraft, instead of witchcraft, he rose from the poorest igloo to be the chief c hief in the village. And for all the years that followed, his people were happy. No one cried at night with pains of hunger.
And this is the story of Keesh, who lived long ago on the rim of the polar sea. Because he exercised headcraft and not witchcraft, he rose from the meanest Igloo to be head man of his village, and through all the years that he lived, his tribe was prosperous, and neither widow nor weak one cried aloud in the night because there was no meat.
