How do the Arctic Indians live in the Arctic?
Many cultures and groups live in the lands surrounding the Arctic Ocean. Among these are the Eskimo (comprised of the Inuit, Inupiat, Yupik and several other groups), who range from Alaska to Canada and Greenland, the Saami (previously called the Lapps) of Scandinavia, the Nenets of Northwest Russia, the Sakha (Yakut) of Russia and the Chukchi of Siberia.
The Inuit traded with other Inuits from time to time throughout the year. Men would trade fur, meat, dolls, sleds, food, and tools. Trade was very familiar with the Inuit, so at times, when an item was traded three times, it could be halfway across the region. They transported the items by sled and by foot. Sometimes they could travel by kayak if water was available. Trade improved lifestyle for the Inuits, so it was done often. Inuits traded amongst themselves of distant areas.
Eskimos are the same race as the East Asians (ex. Chinese, Japanese). By the strict term, meaning inhabitant of Asia, none of them are Asians, except for the Yupik. The rest are in America.
