HistoryEskimo name reported by Orth in 1965, from an informant at Gambell, to mean "sleeping place." The name is applied locally only to the coastal indentation east of Singik Point. The bay probably takes its name from a small village or camp once located here. The Gambell village council recommended the name for map usage in 1949.
