Umik

Umik (alternately Uming) was an Inuit "angakkuq" (shaman) who proclaimed himself a Christian evangelist and began to preach to the Igloolik Inuit in the 1920s.
Umik was one of several "angakkuq" who syncretised Christianity and Inuit traditions. Umik's practices included the use of flags, shaking hands (even those of dogs and children), and Sunday as a day of rest. However, his beliefs also included heretodox practices such as polygamy.
