What's New:Are Eskimos and Inuit the same people?I answered a letter a while ago, from someone at a museum in Alaska. They wanted to know why Inuit (which I am of) dislike being called "Eskimos." After all, many Alaskans don't mind being called Eskimos, and even seem to dislike the term "Inuit" when southerners apply it them, however well-intentioned. I am not surprised by the confusion. Alaskan Native Cultures There are three types of Alaskan Natives with different cultural and linquistic history. They are Indian, Eskimo and Aleut. These are further defined by eleven distinct cultures. Eskimo / Esquimaux Eskimo is the term used when speaking of Inupiaq and Yupik people collectively or to mean all Inuit and Yupik people of the world. Did you know Aleuts were sent to internment camps during WWII? Long-silent Aleuts revisit the suffering of World War II internment camps in a new documentary film set to air on Public Television this month. Native Village of Akhiok profile Akhiok is located at the southern end of Kodiak Island at Alitak Bay. It lies 80 miles southwest of the City of Kodiak, and 340 miles southwest of Anchorage. Former Chief Pete J. Peter explains Gwich'in culture Our way of life is to respect the mother earth and it's animals. Unangan (Aleut) Heritage Several thousand years ago, before European explorers discovered the shores of the Aleutian Islands, they were inhabited by the “Unangas” (Aleut people).
