Eskimos ( or Esquimaux ) or Inuit – Yupik ( for Alaska: Inupiat – Yupik ) peoples are indigenous peoples who have traditionally inhabited the circumpolar region from eastern Siberia ( Russia ), across Alaska ( United States ), Canada, and Greenland.

The Yupik language dialects and cultures in Alaska and eastern Siberia have evolved in place beginning with the original ( pre-Dorset ) Eskimo culture that developed in Alaska.

Today, the two main groups of Eskimos are the Inuit of northern Alaska, Canada and Greenland, and the Yupik of Central Alaska.

The Yupik comprises speakers of four distinct Yupik languages originated from the western Alaska, in South Central Alaska along the Gulf of Alaska coast, and the Russian Far East.

The term Eskimo is commonly used by those in the lower 48 and in Alaska to include both Yupik and Inupiat.

In Alaska the term Eskimo is commonly used, because it includes both Yupik and Inupiat, while Inuit is not accepted as a collective term or even specifically used for Inupiat ( who technically are Inuit ).

There has been some movement to use Inuit, and the Inuit Circumpolar Council, representing a circumpolar population of 150, 000 Inuit and Yupik people of Greenland, Canada, Alaska, and Siberia, in its charter defines Inuit for use within the ICC as including " the Inupiat, Yupik ( Alaska ), Inuit, Inuvialuit ( Canada ), Kalaallit ( Greenland ) and Yupik ( Russia ).

Thus, in Alaska, Eskimo is in common usage, and is the preferred term when speaking collectively of all Inupiat and Yupik people, or of all Inuit and Yupik people throughout the world.

Alaskans also use the term Alaska Native, which is inclusive of all Eskimo, Aleut and Indian people of Alaska, and is exclusive of Inuit or Yupik people originating outside the state.
