History
According to the Alaska Dept. of Community and Economic Development, Shaktoolik was the first and southernmost Malemiut settlement on Norton Sound, occupied as early as 1839. Twelve miles northwest, on Cape Denbigh, is "Iyatayet", a site that is 6,000 to 8,000 years old, and listed on the national register of historic places. Shaktoolik was first mapped in 1842-44 by Lt. Lavrenty Zagoskin, Imperial Russian Navy, who called it "Tshaktogmyut." "Shaktoolik" is derived from an Unaliq word, "suktuliq", meaning "scattered things".
Reindeer herds were managed in the Shaktoolik area around 1905. The village was originally located six miles up the Shaktoolik River, and moved to the mouth of the River in 1933. This site was prone to severe storms and winds, however, and the village relocated to its present, more sheltered location in 1967. There are presently only two occupied dwellings at the old townsite. The City was incorporated in 1969.

Yeah!
Looka here
(The lights go out)
The lights go out, the smell of doom
Is creepin' into your lonely room
The bed's on fire, your fate is sealed
And U're so tired and the reason is Camille-mille
Shockadelica - The girl must be a witch
She got your mind, body, and soul hitched
Shockadelica - U need a second opinion, but she never wears a stitch
So U can't take her home
She got U tied with a golden rope
She won't let U play your guitar
And when U've cried enough
Maybe she'll let U up 4 a nasty ride in her shockadeli-car
She'll make U beg her ("Please girl")
Shockadelica - She got U in a trance
Cuz when this woman say dance, U dance
Shockadelica - U need a second opinion, but U just can't leave her alone
With her U got no mind of your own
Shockadelica, Shockadelica
Doo bee, doo bee, doo bee, yeah!
Shockadelica, Shockadelica

Shockadelica
The lights go out, the smell of doom
Again is creepin' into your lonely room
Is this a dream or is this real? (Or is this real?)
Or is this just a mirage U feel?
