Kogluktogmiut
Kogluktogmiut (alternate: Kogloktogmiut) were a geographically defined Copper Inuit subgroup in the Canadian territory of Nunavut.[1] They were located by Bloody Falls (Inuktitut: Kogluktok; meaning: "it flows rapidly" or "spurts like a cut artery"), a waterfall on the lower course of the Coppermine River[2] in the Kugluk/Bloody Falls Territorial Park, notable for the Bloody Falls Massacre.
Studies by anthropologist Diamond Jenness showed that the subgroups of Akuliakattagmiut, Haneragmiut, Kogluktogmiut, Pallirmiut, , and (also known as the ) mixed through intermarriage and by family shifting.[3]
