About this listen

The Inuit (consisting of Alaskan Iupiat, Greenlandic Inuit, and Canadian Inuit) and the Yupik (or Yuit) of Eastern Siberia and Alaska are described as Eskimo or Eskimos. The Aleut, who live on the Aleutian Islands, are a comparable third group that's usually omitted from the categorization of Eskimo. The three groups have a current typical forefather and speak Eskimo-Aleut languages, which are related.

The introduction of Europeans marks the start of Alaskan Indians' contemporary history. Russians cruising from Siberia in the 18th century were the first to make contact, which was uncommon for the USA and Canada. Traders from the east, mainly from the USA and Canada's eastern towns, didn't come into the area until the 19th century. Christian missionaries were not active in Alaska until the 20th century in some circumstances.

In this book, you will learn more about Eskimos, the Aleut people, and much, much more.
