Janich 1953 Eshino Notes May 30 is just like many parts of Egyptian town, with mured and slush instead of sand and dust, and cold instead of heat. There is not a sprig of vegetation, the town is located on a rolling prominence that is about 20' to 30' above the sea. It shows brown now with the snow nearly all gone there. The filth of generations previous and present is beginning to activate for the summer season and the odors are already emanating from the mud, as the slush water drains off. Everything goes out the door, just about as far as a bushy native can throw it, usually not so far - bones, shelly, caribou antlers, boxes, reags, papers, gar- bage and so on. I picked up a beaten walrus shell in Alfred Hopson's yard, which slopes gently away at the back toward a little drainage way. The tusks are in good shape and fairly large. There were lots of children out playing for it was a fair sunny day. Four small quills were engaged in a vigorous teter-totter game. They had a long plank over a stone or box on a hill- side and 2 kids stood at each end.
