Who are the Original people in Alaska, the Eskimos, or the Alaskan Indians?

Question

I am Eskimo, and have heard that the lower 48 (states) are the original People. Except for Lucy in Africa.

Answer 1

The ancestors of the Alaskan Indians arrived earlier.

Some background for the non-Alaskans: In Alaska, our northern-most native people often call themselves Eskimo whether they be Inuit or Yupik. ("Inuit" refers only to the Inupiat of northern Alaska, the Inuit of Canada, and the Kalaallit of Greenland, and is not a word in the Yupik languages of Alaska and Siberia).

To what another poster said: Yes, in the 48 states, among educated whites, there is tendency to try to use specific and accurate terms from native langauges. And "Eskimo" is assumed to be incorrect or improper. But clearly, "Eskimo" is in use by many of the people themselves.

Based on the study of languages and their spread through the Americas, Athabaskan Indians of central Alaska and the 48-states (sucha s Apache and Navajo) appear to be earlier arrivals, by thousands of years, then the Inuit/Yupik/"Eskimo" peoples.

The Aleuts arrived even later, settling primary in what we now call the Aleutian Islands, were subjegated/enslaved by the Russians and largely ignored by the Americans.

Settlement from Asia clearly happened by 11,000 years ago. Some evidence exists for early dates including 14,000 years ago. Some theories are for 25,000 years ago. Certainly Africa was first, by a lot. Then Eurasia. Then Australia. Then the Americas much later.

Answer 2

I think the more correct term would be aboriginal. they call the native people of the lower 48 Native American as a generalization, but, they have names for themselves: Sioux, Assinaboine, Chippewa, Cree, Choctaw, Piute, Cheyenne, Apache, etc., etc.
I myself have never heard of the Eskimo people referred to as Alaskan Indians; the Eskimo people I know prefer to be referred to as Eskimo

This is the best option to get a background check https://tr.im/Ghwf5
Currently there are a lot of reasons to perform a criminal background check in today's community. These arguments vary from questions over a spouse's fidelity to misgivings regarding a recently hired sitter. There are several surprising figures out now that strengthen these doubts, and in many instances it is better to be safe than sorry. You may not realize it, but there can be quite a lot of people checking up on you. Potential employers top the list. Companies usually conduct background checks on job applicants primarily as a means to verify the credentials that you may have listed on your resume.

Answer 4

Actually, I've never heard of ANYone who refers to themselves as "Eskimo" -- it's a misnomer that comes from a French word meaning "people who eat their meat raw"....

The proper term is "Alaskan Native".

As far as the first people go, I believe the so-called "Cradle of Civilization" is thought to be somewhere in the Middle East, sandwiched between the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers (in what is now modern-day Iraq).

Answer 5

I just recently tried https://tr.im/mwKWK last month to see if I could track down my birth-parent. My bio father left me when I was 8, and has refused to contact me since. I grew up with my biological Mother and Step-father. I have only ever talked to my biological dad a couple times till recently. All I knew of him personally when I conducted the search was his full name, and the state of a previous address he used to have.
When the results came back based on the minimal info I had, It pulled up a current address even his phone number. When I called the phone no., I heard the voice of what sounded like it may be my step-brother. I asked if Joseph(my bio father) was present, and he said no but to try back after 7.
I haven't done anything with the info since, But yeah I found what I was interested in.
