Inuit mythology encompasses the traditional beliefs and stories of the Inuit people, who inhabit the Arctic regions of Canada, Greenland, and Alaska. Central to their mythology are deities and spirits that govern natural elements, such as Sedna, the goddess of the sea and marine animals, who plays a crucial role in the Inuit's relationship with their environment. The myths often explain the origins of the world, the creation of animals, and the importance of harmony with nature. Stories of trickster figures, like Kukailimok, highlight moral lessons and the complexities of human behavior, reflecting the values and experiences of the Inuit culture.
