My earliest memories of my grandfather, Ruben Anghik, was when I was climbing up an embankment with my dad. Upon reaching level ground, I saw my grandfather using a bow drill to make a tool of some kind. I wanted to take a closer look, but my father thought that my grandfather should not be disturbed from his labours.
