Meaning: mammoth, caribou (ounly in shaman speech)

Russian meaning: мамонт, северный олень (только в шаманской речи)

Proto-Yupik: *kamaɣra-

Proto-Inupik: *kumakrua-

Comments: In CED the connection to the word *kumaɣ 'louse' is sort of an absorbed folk etymology. In reality it could reflect a special tricky modification in Inupik languages because of the sacral character of the word. The vowel *-a- in the first syllable is euphemistically changed to *-u- in this example only in Inupik languages. Historically this root was borrowed from PCh *kamaka 'evil, mammoth' which also has a special relation with *kạmạkạ 'beetle' in these languages.
