There are more than two groups of people known as "Native Alaskans", though none are believed to be literally native.

Two important ones are the Athabascans and the Tlingit. There are twelve total Native groups recognized by the government in the Alaska Native Settlement Claims Act. And a thirteenth catch all for "others" of such descent.
