Eskimos and central asian people

I ALWAYS THOUGHT THEY LOOK ALOT LIKE SIBERIANS

Originally posted by flyingzone Some of you may not realize that the name Eskimo is a derogatory word in Algonquian which means "eater of raw flesh." In Canada, this�name is never used anymore. We�use the name�Inuit, which means "the people", instead. �

    
That always made me chuckle too. Heres a few sites to read its easier then just typing out all the common knowledge. First site also gives a general map.

They are most definately North Asian originated but I would say MUCH MUCH older than Turks or even Mongol tribes. They were unto themselves I would say. Think about it, theyve been crossing over continents for over thousands of years.

from what ive read siberain background, making their way round by the coast

It's interesting to think that if the modern world had never interfered with them would they ever have changed their ways. I mean their very family oriented with no government or tribal sense. They use what they had from where they lived which would in sense never have progressed in terms of technology. I dont read alot about inter fighting between them I wonder if their are family rivallries.
