1904 n?vnes af Knud Rasmussen
og hj?lper WT i h?j grad med forst?elsen af ?stgr?nlandske historier:1914 "At the settlement Sammisoq in the most southerly sound connecting the east and the west coast, filled with ice among desolate mountains, I met Kuannia, Eastgreenland's last patriarch. Born at the settlement "The large, strange huts" (Ittoluartiwin) he had spent part of his early youth with his relations near Ammassalik; he remembered their old-fashioned idiom and customs, and recognized in my texts his own impression from his childhood days. The same applied to several of the old emigrants from the eastcoast still living here and from whom I supplemented my material from Ammassalik. The outbreak of the big war reached us at Sammisoq on august 28th and compelled me to discontinue my work in order to hasten
home."
Knud Rasmussen har skrevet historien "Gamle Kuanja's julebudskab" og hvorledes Kuannia som dreng oplevede julen som en syg, alene og for?ldrel?s dreng i Sydgr?nland ca 1870.
Historien er udgivet 1945, 12 ?r efter KR's d?d i 1933.
