Chris T Loc: from England across the pond to New England

Who purported it to be mine, Mike?

What name is it under? ... What's the link?

I think someone's playing games with you, Mike (and me) ...

Either that, or you have me confused with someone else ...

Which I did tell you - early on, in this exchange ... I do not post pictures of people - here, or anywhere else, for that matter ....

my mistake

That could well be, Japako ... but, I did get that right from the horse's mouth - someone who actually lives there ... did you read the rest of the quote?

In case you missed it, here:

The farthest north Eskimos are known as the Inupiat (or Inupiaq, if you will) further south they are known as the Yupik, (or Yup’ik)
The Aleuts are actually of unknown certain origin, and live on the Aleutian Peninsula and Aleutian Islands. Whatever they were originally, there was extensive contact between them and the Russians, beginning in either the late 1600’s or early 1700’s. As a result, many Aleuts have Russian names. In South Central Alaska, where we live, there are a couple different Alaska Native tribes. Locally, there is the Knik tribe, and on the Kenai Peninsula there is the Kenai Tribe, or Ke’inai (or something like that) who are related to the Aleuts. The Knik tribe, and the Eklutna Tribe are more closely related to or a part of the Athabaskan Indian Nation.

The Eskimo people seem to be generally shorter with wider, more dished faces and oriental-looking eyes, somewhat resembling the Mongolian people. They theorize that they migrated here from Asia when there was a landbridge between Alaska and Siberia, and that the Diomede Islands are likely that last vestiges of that land bridge. The rest has disappeared under the Bering Sea. The Aleuts seem to have a lot of White influence, so more closely resemble caucasians, although that’s not 100% across the board. The Athabaskan people are taller and more straight-legged,while the Eskimo people have tendency toward bowleggedness. The Athabaskans also have a narrower, longer face, and resemble many of the native American Indians. The Knik and Eklutna people don’t really look any others, particularly, but more like the Athabaskans. I think there may be a lot of mixed blood there. Just so you know, all of this doesn’t include the native people of Southeast Alaska, the Tlingets and the Haida’s, and there’s one other. If I recall correctly, the Tlingets (pronounced klinket) have been fisherman and the Haidas have been more warlike, but also fisherman. I believe they are related to the coastal tribes of British Columbia, Washington and Oregon.

Mike .... why would you think I would have a website affiliated with the encyclopedia people?

Chris T Loc: from England across the pond to New England

Why would you think a page of the Wiki encyclopedia - would have ANYTHING to do with me?

I don't get it, Mike ... please explain ...

Chris T Loc: from England across the pond to New England

Japako ... this is from Wiki ....

The Inuit live throughout most of Northern Canada in the territory of Nunavut, Nunavik in the northern third of Quebec, Nunatsiavut and NunatuKavut in Labrador, and in various parts of the Northwest Territories, particularly around the Arctic Ocean. These areas are known in Inuktitut as the "Inuit Nunangat".

In the United States, the Iñupiat live primarily on the Alaska North Slope and on Little Diomede Island. The Greenlandic Inuit are descendants of indigenous migrations from Canada. They are citizens of Denmark, although not of the European Union.

Nomenclature[edit]
See also: Eskimo § Nomenclature
In the United States, the term "Eskimo" is still commonly used, because it includes Inuit, Aleut, Iñupiat, and Yupik peoples whilst distinguishing them from American Indians. The Yupik do not speak an Inuit language nor consider themselves to be Inuit.[11] However, the term is probably a Montagnais[50][51][52] exonym as well as being widely used in[50][53][54][55] folk etymology as meaning "eater of raw meat" in the Cree language.[13][56] It is now considered pejorative or even a racial slur amongst the Canadian and English-speaking Greenlandic Inuit.[13][56]

Mike ... we can throw Wiki quotes at each other all night long ...

That doesn't explain why you thought I had a web-page with pictures of Inuit all over it ....

Could you please try and explain this to me ? ... thanks ....
