The Myth
Norssutilik is the name given to two spirits in Inuit belief who share the same defining feature: a norjut, a tassel attached to a flexible stick worn or placed over the hood of a frock.
Because both spirits possess this distinctive tassel, they are known by the same name. The norjut serves as their identifying mark, distinguishing them from other spirits encountered in Inuit tradition.
