A brief history of the Inuit, part one.

This post is going to go over how the Inuit people came to be in North America, as well as some history on the earlier cultures that lead to the Inuit. During sometime between 6000 and 2000 BC the Inuit crossed the Bering Land Bridge on to North America. The first culture to emerge was the Denbigh culture, sometime around 5000 BC, which was characterized by their use of flint blades and bow and arrows, as well as garments made of animal skin. The Denbigh culture slowly evolved into the Dorset culture in 1000BC. Dorset culture, much like Inuit culture, involved hunting both sea and land mammals for food; many harpoons and other types of hunting equipment were found at Dorset archeology dig sites. The Norton culture came after the Dorset period, though my source had little information to offer on the subject. The Thule culture was the last culture before the modern-day Inuit, and were in many ways similar to them. The Thule used dogsleds as well as kayaks to spread around modern day Alaska and Canada.
That's all for now, next post will probably have more information on the Thule culture. Sorry for the poor writing, I just researched string theory and I'm trying to get over the fact that everything is an illusion.

Inuits!

After a half hour of guessing my password, I finally got into my blog. Yay! But on topic, Inuits. These guys are descendants of the Thule people, and lived in areas around Greenland, and what are currently called the northern territories. The Inuit people's sources of food were from fishing, and hunting large sea mammals, such as whales. This group of indigenous people will be this focus of my research on this blog, instead of the other native group I was considering, which I discussed in a earlier post that has mysteriously disappeared off the blog. Weird. So, detailed research on the two subjects I talked about and more will be coming soon.
