Although very similar, the Haida and the Inuit can also be vastly different. I want to point out the similarities and differences between the challenges faced, the resources available, and the universals of culture in each tribe. 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 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
In the Native American culture, tribes have always used natural resources. One of these tribes is the Inuit. The Inuit are found in numerous places. They are found in two countries in North America: Alaska, United States and Canada. The natural resources found there would be snow, ivory, wood, blubber, and furs.
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
The Inuit, Haida, and Sioux all very alike and different at the same time. One thing they all have in common is that they all live in Canada. The Inuit live in Nunavut and the Yukon Territory, the Haida people live on the Queen Charlotte Islands, and the Sioux live in Manitoba. They all do art, but different types of art, they also do it in different ways. The Haida did totem poles, the Sioux decorated tipis with paint, and the Inuit did carvings. The Sioux, Haida
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
Did you know, the Dene, and the Inuit have several things in common? In this essay, you will learn about the differences and similarities between the Inuit tribe, and the Dene tribe. You will learn about how they are similar, how the Dene is different, and how the Inuit is different.
Haida architecture evolved from artistic necessity. As isolated island people they had few resources to trade. They relied on their reputation for artistic design and excellent craftsmanship amongst the mainland tribes to trade for the resources they needed. This research essay explores the culture, climate and material resources of the Haida Gwaii (Haida People) First Nation of British Columbia, Canada.
Everyone has heard of the term Native Americans at least once, but have you ever heard of the Inuit and Innu people? I did some research on the Innu and Inuit people and there were a lot of things they had in common and things they didn’t. So, today I will be teaching you about the similarities and differences between the Innu people and the Inuit people!
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.
This paper addresses the results of interviews, observations, and research of life in the Ottawa tribe, how they see themselves and others in society and in the tribe. I mainly focused on The Little River Band of Ottawa Indian tribe. I researched their languages, pecking order, and interviewed to discover the rituals, and traditions that they believe in. In this essay I revealed how they see themselves in society. How they see other people, how they see each other, what their values were, what a typical day was etc. I initially suspected that I would have got different responses from these questions but in reality the results in the questions were almost completely the same. I studied this topic because mostly all the people that are
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 Inuit people are also known as Eskimos. They have lived in the Artic area; the Tundra, where the climate is cold and too severe for trees to grow, for over a thousand years. Over the thousands of years living in the Artic environment, the Inuit people have adapted culturally and biologically. Among the biological adaptations, their bodies altered permitting them to adapt to the environment in five ways. In addition to biological adaptations, the Inuit people also adapted culturally, changing how they dressed, the type of home they lived in, and the number of individuals in their groups.
Most believe that Native American live deep within temperate forests, but one tribe lives within a much colder and frigid climate. This tribe is known as the Inuits. Inuit means “The Real People” (Santella 5). A group of Inuits traveled to the Americas from Asia, and they went towards the north pole. They eventually settled in the Arctic regions and began to thrive (7). They are widely dispersed throughout the Siberian, Alaskan, Canadian, and Greenland regions (6). The Inuits have an interesting history, lifestyle, and religion.
