Similarities and Differences between the Inuit, Haida and Sioux Tribes By: Ameris Shores “To touch the earth is to have harmony with nature.” - unknown. There are many differences and similarities between the Inuit, Haida, and Sioux tribes. Here are some of the differences and similarities. For one, they all hunt with some of the same tools. The Inuit use nets and spears for fishing on the ice and in boats in the ocean. The Haida also use nets and spears for occasional fishing trips. The Sioux, however, use nets for traps to get food and also uses spears to hunt animals and fish. This explains why they have and use the same hunting tools. Secondly, they travel almost exactly the same way. The Inuit use dog sleds for travel, although the modern travel resource is a snowmobile. The Haida also use dog sleds for transportation. The Sioux walk everywhere, but use sleds pulled by dogs used to carry their goods. That is the reason they travel the same way. …show more content…

This is a myth of how something came to be. One of the Haida’s myths is how people came to the earth at first. This is a myth of how something came to be also. This proves their myths have the same

The Eastern Woodland Farmers and Hunters both live near the Five lakes between U.S.A. and Canada, they both use snowshoes during the winter, and they both lived near south, southwest of Ontario. The Eastern Woodland Hunters and The Inuit both fish as one of their ways to get food, both were also nomadic people, and they also were both peaceful people(they rarely fight in war). The Eastern Woodland Farmers and The Inuit both used boats to get around in the water, they both
This is how the three groups are alike. They all live in Canada. THe inuit lived in the far north, Haida lived on the island, and the iroquois lived west. They also all hunted. Inuit hunted seal, Haida and iroquois fished. They all lived in houses, inuit in igloo, Haida in long house, and iroquois in tepees. They all eat food, Inuit eat seal, Haida and iroquois eat fish. They all have things in common.
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 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.
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.

They made their home after
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 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 Inuit have a Bladder Feast, which is a act of respect for the seals they catch during the year (Institution and Smithsonian). Lots of the Inuit culture is about them giving respect to the animals they kill and they use every part of that animal. The Inuit would hunt animals like bison, whales, fish, and arctic bears. The Inuit people have mastered the skills of survival in the arctic region. They use many tools in order to hunt. They use spears for catching whales and they hunt in groups on land. Over the years they have improved their ways of hunting and building their
The Inuit art played a very important role in the their culture. They used all their resources they could to make art, but as today they are getting low or scarce of the resources that they could get easily before. The resources are getting scarce because of the recent problem with the weather changes. They used
Each group of indigenous peoples have their own culture, lifestyles and beliefs.

Also the Na’vi worship Eywa, their goddess made up of all living things while the aboriginals worship the land. The Aboriginals are nomadic and
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.
