On deHeere's picture the jacket has a roundish hood and a long tail, whereas nowadays the jackets in this region have rather pointed hoods and are cut off straight or at most provided with a small dorsal flap, besides often having a short slit in front.
The man, who has a somewhat distorted sinew-backed bow in his hand, is dressed in a costume similar to that of deHeere's Eskimo except for the fact that the jacket is shorter in front.
It seems a reasonable conclusion, therefore, that the peculiar features of dress pictured by both deHeere and White are characteristic of the Thule Culture and still existed in southern Baffin Island at the close of the 16th century.
