While discussing katajjait (Inuit throat-song), Robert Bringhurst says the following:
"I also hope to meet the thinker from Pond Inlet (quoted but, alas, not named by Saladin d'Anglure) who said that humans learned the sounds of these songs from wild geese but learned the meanings of the sounds from the aurora."
(from Singing with the Frogs, in Canadian Literature 155)
