Arnapkapfaaluk ("big bad woman") was the sea goddess of the Inuit of Canada's Coronation Gulf area. Although occupying the equivalent position to Sedna within Inuit religion, in that she had control of the animals of the seas, she was noticeably different as can be seen by the English translation of her name. Arnapkapfaaluk was not the beneficent goddess that Sedna was. Instead, she inspired fear in hunters. Rather than providing the Copper Inuit with the seals and other marine mammals, she would withhold them. The breaking of a taboo or other indiscretion would result in an unsuccessful hunt.

Bien qu'elle occupait la même place que Sedna dans la mythologie inuit en contrôlant les animaux de la mer, elle en était nettement différente comme la traduction anglaise de son nom le montre. Contrairement à Sedna, Arnapkapfaaluk n'était pas une déesse bienfaisante mais au contraire inspirait la peur aux chasseurs. Au lieu de subvenir aux besoins en phoques et autres mammifères marins des chasseurs, son intervention les en privait. La rupture d'un tabou ou même une indiscrétion pouvait conduire à une chasse infructueuse. (fr)
