ABSTRACT Northwest Greenland Photograph Identification Project This project will collect information about individuals in photographs taken between 1908 and 1954 by Donald B. MacMillan in the Thule district of Northwest Greenland, now in the collections of the Peary-MacMillan Arctic Museum. The project will focus on identifying individuals and establishing ties to their descendants. Information about the location of individuals at important points of their lives (birth, marriage, childbirth, death) will be collected. The project will also increase local access to the historic photographs of the community, through museum exhibitions and publications. To this end, an exhibit of the photographs will be produced in collaboration with the Thule Museum of Qaanaaq. While this study is focused on answering basic questions about people in the photographs, one ultimate goal of the project is to begin to make use of the collection and information for further anthropological and ethnohistoric work.

摘要 西北格陵兰照片识别项目 这个项目将收集唐纳德B在1908年至1954年之间拍摄的照片中的个人信息。格陵兰西北部图勒区的麦克米伦，现收藏于皮里-麦克米伦北极博物馆。 该项目将侧重于查明个人身份并与其后代建立联系。 将收集有关个人在其生命的重要时刻（出生、结婚、分娩、死亡）所处位置的信息。 该项目还将通过博物馆展览和出版物，增加当地获得该社区历史照片的机会。 为此，将与Qaanaaq图勒博物馆合作举办一次照片展览。 虽然这项研究的重点是回答关于照片中的人的基本问题，但该项目的一个最终目标是开始利用这些收集和信息进行进一步的人类学和民族历史学工作。
