Iliamna Lake (Nanvarpak, Nila Vena) Native and Local Place Names (2016-2019)

Alaska Native place name geodatabase records (points and polygons) from Iliamna Lake region compiled by Yoko Kugo as part of NSF-supported dissertation, based on ethnographic field work in Iliamna, Newhalen, Kokhanok, Igiugig, and Levelock from 2016 to 2019. Names are listed in Yugcetun (Yup'ik) language, with accompanying English name and literal meaning. Some Yugcetun are no longer within the collective memory but the literal meaning is still known; for these names only the English name and meaning are given. The database also include local (unofficial) English names in common use in the region. More than 30 community Elders and local knowledge holders contributed to this project, and the project acknowledges the communities of Iliamna, Newhalen, Kokhanok, Igiugig, and Levelock, the Iliamna Lake Place Names Committee.本数据集为覆盖伊利亚马纳湖区域的阿拉斯加原住民地名地理数据库记录（含点与多边形要素），由Yoko Kugo编制，系其受美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation，NSF）资助的博士论文研究成果之一，数据基于2016至2019年间在伊利亚马纳、纽哈伦、科哈诺克、伊吉吉格与利弗洛克开展的民族志田野调查。地名以尤皮克语（Yugcetun，Yup'ik）标注，同时附带对应的英文名称与字面释义。部分尤皮克语地名已无集体记忆留存，但仍可获知其字面含义，此类地名仅提供英文名称与释义。该数据库同时收录该区域通用的本土（非官方）英文地名。本项目共有30余位社区长老与本土知识持有者参与，并鸣谢伊利亚马纳、纽哈伦、科哈诺克、伊吉吉格、利弗洛克各社区以及伊利亚马纳湖地名委员会。
