" One Cree speaker suggested the original word that became corrupted to Eskimo might indeed have been askamiciw ( which means " he eats it raw "), and the Inuit are referred to in some Cree texts as askipiw ( which means " eats something raw ").

A central publication on this topic is the recent volume edited by Dixon and Aikhenvald ( 2007 ), examining the mismatch between prosodic-phonological and grammatical definitions of " word " in various Amazonian, Australian Aboriginal, Caucasian, Eskimo, Indo-European, Native North American, West African, and sign languages.

Using an ethnoarchaeological comparison, he looked at how hunters amongst the Nunamiut Eskimo of north central Alaska spent a great deal of time in a certain area simply waiting for prey to arrive there, and that during this period, they undertook other tasks to pass the time, such as the carving of various objects, including a wooden mould for a mask, a horn spoon and an ivory needle, as well as repairing a skin pouch and a pair of caribou skin socks.

The Central Alaskan Yupik are by far the most numerous of the various Alaska Native groups and speak the Central Alaskan Yup ' ik language, a member of the Eskimo – Aleut family of languages.

Among the many various Eskimo cultures, term silap inua / sila, hillap inua / hilla ( among Inuit ), siḷam iñua ( among Inupiaq ), ellam yua / ella ( among Yup ' ik ) is used with some diversity.

Shamanhood among Eskimo peoples was a diverse phenomenon, just like the various Eskimo cultures themselves.

Medium to small sized breeds similar in appearance from various places in the world include the Wolfsspitz ( Keeshond ), Großspitz, Mittelspitz, Kleinspitz, Zwergspitz ( Pomeranian ), Samoyed ( dog ), Norwegian Elkhound, Volpino Italiano ( Italian Spitz ), Laika ( Russian Spitz ), Finnish Spitz, Indian Spitz, Japanese Spitz and the American Eskimo Dog.

MacRitchie himself argued in his Testimony of Tradition, under a chapter subheading entitled " A Hairy Race " ( p. 167 ) that they were somewhat connected to the Lapps or Eskimos, but were a distinct race because of their very long beards, concluding: " one seems to see the type of a race that was even more like the Ainu than the Lapp, or the Eskimo, although closely connected in various ways with all of these " ( p. 173 ).

The company also entered into the field of larger show and presentation pieces celebrating various scenes ( such as its cut-away design featuring an Eskimo ice fisherman above the ice, and the fish below, or the Cathedral Window design ) and elements that incorporated etchings.

Simplified, all the ethnic groups of the entire polar region are called Eskimos and their various boat versions Eskimo kayaks / canoes.

The Inupiaq dialects, like other Eskimo – Aleut languages, represent a particular type of agglutinative language called a polysynthetic language: it " synthesizes " a root and various grammatical affixes to create long words with sentence-like meanings.

This leads to another debate ( see the Sapir – Whorf hypothesis or Eskimo words for snow ).

Also many Inuit languages make such a distinction, see for details e. g. the sophisticated participle system of the Sireniki Eskimo.

Some argue that the Sirenik language is a remnant of a third group of Eskimo languages, in addition to Yupik and Inuit groups, see online a visual representation by tree and an argumentation based on comparative linguistics in.

Perhaps more important, according to Capparella, is the lack of sightings by " the legions of competent birdwatchers ... scanning the skies of the U. S. and Canada " who sometimes make " surprising observations " with cameras at the ready ( see for example 20th-century sightings of the Eskimo Curlew ).
