The term Eskimo means "eaters of raw meat" and was used as a derogatory term by Native American groups of eastern Canada in referring to their northerly neighbors.
The igloo was only used as a temporary shelter on extended winter hunting trips and not as a permanent home.
The shaman was regarded as the central religious figure in traditional Inuit culture. His functions included: blessing the hunt; treating sickness; and providing advice in times of crisis.
Traditional Inuit clothing was made from the skins of birds and animals (seal, caribou, and polar bear). They used sinew thread and bone needles to sew hooded jackets, pants, and waterproof boots which were well adapted to Arctic conditions.



Inuit People

The word inuit means 'the people' and is used throughout the Arctic to describe a diversity of cultures ranging from the Kalaalit in Greenland to the Inupiaq of Canada, the Alutiiq in Alaska, and the Yup'ik in Siberia. A hardy, adaptable people one of the most striking aspects of traditional Inuit culture is its relative religious, social, and economic homogeneity across more than 5,000 miles of Arctic coastal and tundra expanse. The ancestors of present-day Inuit probably traveled from Eurasia eastwards across northern Canada to Greenland.
The basic language is divided into three major dialectical groups--Inupik speakers in Greenland and Canada, Inupiaq speakers in northern Alaska to the Seward Peninsula, and Yupik speakers in southwestern Alaska and Siberia.

Inuit people live in one of the most inhospitable regions of the world. Their land -- mostly tundra consists of low, flat, treeless plains with permanently frozen ground (permafrost). Although some groups are settled on rivers and depend primarily on fishing for subsistence, others follow inland caribou herds. Most Inuit, however, have lived primarily as hunters of maritime mammals (seals, walrus, and whales), and their culture has always been oriented to the sea for food and materials for clothing, shelter, and weaponry. Deeply held cultural values stressed the excitement and prestige of hunting and the need to appease the souls of animals killed for food.

Current census data list 40,000 Inuit in Alaska; 30,000 in Canada; 40,000 in Greenland; and approximately 1,000 in Siberia. Wherever they live, Inuit peoples have undergone significant changes in their traditional ways of life. They have adopted much of modern technology their educational, recreational, economic, religious, and governmental institutions have been heavily influenced by the dominant cultures.

Answer 2

I basically have been given my 2d Eskie the different day. the two certainly one of my Eskies are growing to be alongside effective with different canine. i won't be in a position to assert in the event that they get alongside with cats in view that my cats do no longer in basic terms like the canine. I had my first Eskie till she gave up the ghost at age 19. She in no way loved the water and truly easily till you intend to spend alot of time grooming i does no longer advise swimming as an interest. i don't comprehend if my new Eskie might like swimming and easily i do no longer plan to be certain. i'm able to assert that my different Eskie enjoyed enjoying ball, it appeared to return needless to say. She enjoyed to run and my husband used to jog along with her often. they're an rather lively breed and it takes a protracted time for them to strengthen out of that puppy exuberance.
