1. Alaska: Modern Times!!!

3. Prehistoric 
We’re talking A.D.

4. Inuits
The Inuits first travelled from northeast Siberia through Alaska into Canada, but contrary to popular belief, they were not the first inhabitants.
A culture archaelogists call the Dorset (or Tuniit, if you want to speak in Inuktitut) were living there, but they eventually “disappeared,” or died off in conflict with the Inuits.
The Inuits then travelled the tundra and though they were mainly nomadic, they settled all throughout Alaska, Canada, and Greenland.

5. Not Eskimos!!!
By the way, it is politically incorrect to use the word “eskimo,” for “eskimo” is a Native American word meaning “eater of raw meat,” which is pretty offensive to the Inuit people since it basically calls the culture primitive and barbaric.
In fact, in 1977, there was a group meeting of 150,000 Inuits from Canada, Greenland, and Alaska who decided that they should be called Inuits, not eskimos.
So get it right or pay the price!

6. Food In order to live, the Inuit people were forced into hunting the
Surrounding marine line,
Including whales and seals.
And back then, there was less ice
So it was easier to go fishin’!
The Inuits caught their prey using a number of methods, mainly by harpoons from their “boats” – kayaks or umiaks
The Inuits are also well known for their skills in ice fishing.

7. Eskimo Pie.

8. Shelter Sometimes, stereotypes really are true!
Ancient Inuits relied on igloos, or snow houses carved out of special snow knives, for shelter
In order to keep warm, the Aboriginal culture used soapstone lamps lit by the oil of surrounding marine life (seals, whales)

9. Transportation
Dog Sledding Kayaking

10. Clothing
Just as Native American cultures, Inuits also made sure to make use of all animal parts – the hide and fur being the main components of an “Inuit suit,” shown at the left.
Such hides were not only soft and warm but also water-resistant!
“Parka” – heavy coat
“Mukluk boots” – intense boots

11. Inuits party, too!!!

12. Inuit Society
Men were generally hunters or fishermen while women took care of children, cooked, and sewed.
They were nomads because they lived in the Ice Age – their only resource were the nearby animals, particularly whales, so the Inuit communities would simply follow the animals.

13. Religion Looked to nature for spirituality, much like Native Americans
Held ceremonies led by shamans and healers
Searched for truth in the Northern Lights

14. Have a Beary Good Day ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
