"Two explanations are commonly given for the peculiar name of this village. The first recounts, that many years ago when migrating caribou attempted to cross the river many were swept downstream and drowned. Their carcasses, it seems, were washed up on shore where they began to rot, producing a putrid odour. The other explanation of the site's name tells how everyone living in the area were once the victims of a deadly epidemic. In the end, there was no one left to bury the dead bodies. When the corpses began to decompose, the air was filled with an awful stench. The whole area, however, is know by a more pleasant name. Amaamatisivik means the place where women breast-feed their babies. According to legend, in this area the women would continually breast-feed their babies to keep them from crying and disturbing the herds of migrating caribou."
Oh, because nowhere else in the world breast feeds their babies? Like thats so odd you have to name an area after it.
I'm going to name my town "masterbation". Cause it's the only area that guys masterbate. WTF!
