There are many differences in the Inuit and Haida tribes. One challenge they both face, is that of survival. Both tribes live in very different environments. Inuit face the chances of falling in ice cold water and freezing to death. The Haida live in a less harsh environment, but they still have the chance of death from trees falling on them while they cut them down for canoes, and they have the chances of another tribe coming and invading them ( killing ).
The main challenge they both have is survival, because if you don’t know how to fire, shelter, and boil water you will not make it. For the Inuit tribe they use reindeer fur to keep warm and the hide for homes and to protect their young ones hands they sew the reindeer hide o the end of the fur jacket. The Haida live more easily, because they live in the forest. Unlike the Inuit who live in the frozen land areas ( Antarctica , Canada ).

If you don’t have food how are you going to survive? Inuit hunt seals and very rarely they hunt clams. Haida hunt deer and most of the time they hunt samen.
The Haida don’t have warm fur coats, they have clothing that cover their private areas. Unlike the Haida, the Inuit have really warm fur coats because they live in a really cold place.
Their shelters are extremely different. They are different because the Inuit live in eg glues and reindeer hide homes. The Haida live in wooden houses and the houses can fit up to 4 families in the house.
Those three factors were how the Inuit and Haida live
The two tribes both dressed differently, I was actually surprised about because they both lived in the same time period. For example, the Blackfoot people didn't where as much clothing, and the Inuit people wore a lot of clothing such as huge winter coats. The Blackfoot people wore more of summer clothing because the weather was almost always sunny. Also, the Inuit people wore big heavy coats and pants so they didn't freeze in behalf of the cold weather.The two groups obviously
The article “the inuit paradox” starts off with an Inupiat woman describing the most common foods that she consumed growing up in an Inuit community in which foraging is necessary for survival. She describes that the traditional Inuit diet focused primarily on meat that was foraged from the environment.
The Inuit tribe are a nomadic people, so they did not stay in one place very long often. They would use snow to make an igloo. They would use harder snow to make the dome shape, and soft snow just to fill in any holes and insulation. If the igloo were permanent, they would use animal fur to make a sleeping platform, or in other words, a bed. In the western arctic, the Inuit, called the Inuvialuit there, had access to trees.
How are the Inuit, Haida, and Iroquois alike? Well to start they all live in Canada! The Inuit live the Atlantic coast of Labrador in Canada. The Haida live in the West Coast of British Columbia in Canada. Last but not least, the Iroquois live Southwest and North Ontario in Canada! Second, they use the similar fishing tools. The Inuit use spears and kayaks. The Haida use spears, nets and traps. Last the Iroquois use spears, arrows and nets. So they all use spears to help them fish. Third, their art. All of the tribes use their are to communicate and also tell stories. Some use it to tell spirits or talk about spirits. Fourth, they all got interrupted by the Europeans. The Inuit is was a good thing cause they taught the Inuit new thing but they brought drug which is illegal to the Inuit. To the Haida it was bad cause they took/killed all the seals so the Haida couldn’t have seal. Last, to the Iroquois it was a good thing because they got to see new things. Fifth, their homes. They made their home after
They eat food that the Sioux and Inuit may not eat. The Haida eat salmon and fish while the others don’t. The people speak a different language than the Inuit and the Sioux. They speak the language of the Haida while the others don’t. Haida people live in something way different than the other groups. They live in a log house, also known as the big house. Also the Haida people live on an island. The Haida people are different in ways like they live on an island.
There are many similarities and differences between Inuit, Eastern Woodlands Hunters, and Eastern Woodlands Farmers. They are different because they had different regions, environment, and history. They are have similarities like where in the world they lived and came from.
The Inuit people live at a unique location. They live in the far North and into Canada. “There is a Canadian village, named Grise Fjord, just 500 miles from the North Pole” (Sontella 7). The Inuit people
The Inuit and the Dene are comparable tribes, even though they don’t live together. First of all, the both of them live on the more northern side of Canada, towards the Arctic, or in the Arctic zones. The Inuit territory is the farthest part north of North America, while the Dene are their neighbors to the south. Finally, both the Inuit and the Dene hunt caribou for meat to keep their tribes alive. Caribou are regularly common in the northern region of North America, so the Dene, and the Inuit have alike clothing, made from the hides of the caribou. The Dene, and the Inuit do have strong
You might be thinking to yourself, the Innu and Inuit people MUST be the same since they have the “same” name but the Innu people are different. For example, the housing that the Innu people mostly did was a wigwam. A wigwam is a type of shelter that is made from birch bark and wooden frames. The housing is different from the Inuit people because the Inuit people created igloos made from ice cubes, not birch bark. Also, the Innu people had hunting leaders for hunting groups when they went to hunt caribou, fish, and some more meat. This is different than the inuit people hunting “plans” because they didn’t have hunting leaders, they just went hunting whenever basically. There are a lot more differences the Innu people did compared to Inuit people but these are some of the ones that stuck out to me.
The Haida People are an indigenous ethnic group of the Pacific Northwest situated along the west coast of Canada in British Columbia. They are a people mainly from the archipelago of Haida Gwaii in northern BC as well as Alaskan Haida and the Kaigani peoples which make up the Haida First Nation.
The people of Inuit, Yup’ik, Unangan, and other Native Americans Indians have lived in the harshest environment on Earth from Siberia, across Alaska and Canada, and to the East of Greenland along the coast of the Bering Sea and Arctic Ocean. From Labrador to the interior of Alaska the Athapaskan, Cree, Innu, and other Native’s people lived in the subarctic region of the land. These people had the ability to depend on their years of knowledge of the sky, ice, ocean, land, and animal behaviors in order to survive. Living in the area that was vast and dealing with seasonal dynamic extremes these Native people of the Artic and Subarctic had a honorable endurance for an millennia of exchanged goods, ceremonies, and shared feasts with neighboring goods that has help them throughout the years.
The Canadian Inuit were a domestic, tribal, egalitarian society in the 19th century. And some cultural changes occurred; making the Inuit adapt and become more aware of other resources they could get hold of, for gathering and hunting for food. In the 19th Century, the Europeans discovered the Inuit culture and this provided new resources for the Inuit to gain an easier way to gather and hunt for food. But because of the European influence, the Inuit’s culture changed to adapt with European Individuals living in their land, and European resources that had been made access to them. By this cultural change in the 19th century there was “an increased diversity in the social structure and material culture of the Labrador Inuit society” (Auger, 1993:27). The Labrador Inuit was a significant Inuit Society to have an ethnographical research made to understand a little bit more to; how the Inuit was affected and how the food process was changed. It will also be discussed the significant ideas and techniques that the Inuit used to gather and hunt for resources.
To begin, some challenges faced by the Haida and the Inuit could be the same or they could be diverse. For instance, because of the temperature where the Inuit are located, hypothermia and frostbite could occur, whereas this is not a problem for the Haida. Moreover, the Inuit do not have trees to make wood houses. However, the Haida does not have this same problem. Alike, both tribes have to adapt to cold winter weather, which, as you can imagine, can be very challenging. As you can see, both the Haida and the Inuit
The Inuit are very spiritual people and they do not believe in a lot of the same things we do. They believe in something called Animism, all living and nonliving things have a spirit. When someone or something dies they believe that things spirit goes to the spiritual world. They only people powerful enough to talk or communicate with these spirits are religious leaders, Shamans or “Angakoks”. The way these religious leader speak with them is through dances or charms. They wear masks and clothes of an animal because they believe it helps them to communicate with them better. Not all spirits are good ones, when the weather was bad or there was an illness going around they believed it to be a displeased spirit, but the Inuit used guidelines to try to make the spirit happy. There was five rules that need to be followed in order to please the spirits, 1) women are not allowed to sew caribou skins on the inside of there igloo on sea ice in the winter. 2) Inuit can not eat sea mammal and land mammal at the same meal. 3) A knife used to kill whales had to wrapped in sealskin, not caribou skin. 4) After killing a seal melted snow had to dripped into its mouth to quench the spirit's thirst. 5) The Inuit saved the bladder of the hunted because they believed that’s where the spirit was found inside. One of the most important spirits was Sedna, The Goddess of the Sea. She provided them with food from the sea, which made the Inuit most happy.
The Inuits live in really harsh conditions in the Arctic. They have lived there for a really long time. They live in a place called Nunavut. They are brave to live there. They are not able to make wooden homes, because of their climate region, so they make snow houses called “Igloos”. In the summer, when the snow melts, they cannot make igloos. They live in tent like huts made of animal skins. Inuit communities are found in the: Northwest Territories, Labrador, and Quebec.
