Unangan culture predates Russian settlement of the region by thousands of years.
Our ancestors flourished in a place both rugged and unforgiving and spawned a culture rich in art and oral traditions, including grass basketry, sleek iqyan (skin boats), and beautiful bentwood hats.
Russian contact began in the mid-1700s, and the Alaska Native population began a rapid decline due to the introduction of illness and other Western practices.
Today, OC shareholders are located throughout the country and come from all walks of life.
