It is located by the Chukchi Sea shore on the Sheshalik Spit, 14 mi. northwest of Kotzebue.〔 The name of this village was recorded as "Sesualik" by Captain Frederick William Beechey in 1831. In the 1880 Census conducted by Ivan Petroff Sheshalik was listed as "Sheshalegamute" with a population of 100. Captain Calvin L.
