John Askew has a song 'picture of Dorian. Also there is an artist Victor Askew.
I have tried to make sense of loses relevance but nothing fits to dwellings. Sorry. This is a real stinker
A single tent, or tupic, as it is called by them, is composed of from five to ten skins, which are split -- that is, the mumme is split off and dried separately from the skin.
Can't seem to find any reference to a Tupic - not even as an alternative spelling. Only Tupiq or Tupik.
If any one could supply a link showing a definition of a tupic I would be grateful otherwise I am back at square one unless Tupiq or Tupik could be explained as the answer. HELP!!
