In Inuit mythology the ijiraq (pron.: /ˈiːjɨrɑːk/ ee-yə-rahk or /ˈiːdʒɨrɑːk/ ee-jə-rahk) is a sort of shape shifter who kidnaps children and hides them away and abandons them. The inuksugaq (or inukshuk) of stone allow these children to find their way back if they can convince the ijiraq to let them go.
