what are eskimo's burial customs?

Question

what do they do with thier dead?

Answer 1

prior to the christains teaching them better it was the custom just to put the person above ground off in the distance or to put the person in the ocean. they also used to think it was ok for the old or very sick just to walk off and die in the snow on there own.
now they do the same things as we do in the south

Answer 2

When the old folks know when its their time. They get on an iceberg and float away. That made lots of sense when food was scarce and they were dying anyway. Maybe it has changed now. Oatmeal is cheap.
