Saqqaq Traditional Cache

Saqqaq is an small fishing settlement on the south-east part of the Nuussuaq Peninsula.

Saqqaq has also given name to the Saqqaq culture since it was here that the first archaeological finds from those early inhabitants was made.

During my one week long stay here in late June 2015 Saqqaq had:

• Approximately 150 year-round inhabitants
• One kindergarten
• One school, with 11 pupils
• One fish processing plant
• One grocery store
• Two kiosk
• One billion mosquitoes.
