The Inuit's region that they lived in was very cold and they had to adapt to it. They also had to make different clothing to adapt to it. The region that the Inuit Tribe was living in also had many land forms in it as well.

- Common resources like wood were not steadily available in Alaska, so the Inuit people made their houses out of snow and ice. (Igloos) During spring, when snow was scarce, the people would use animal skins attached to driftwood or whale bones. (They killed lots of animals in order to make shelter and provide food for the growing population.)
An example of the "igloos" that the Inuit created to stay warm during winter. When the snow melted, the snow was replaced with a large animal pelt and a driftwood structure.]]> 2017-08-16 14:48:59 UTC https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181269803 Place tgruca22 https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181271868 The Inuit were a very widespread tribe, taking up most of Alaska and Siberia. Because of this, they were near and even interacted with a lot of landforms and natural wonders.
There were a lot of places for the Inuit to call home in the cold climate of the North.

- Like their shelters, the Inuit killed lots of animals to create clothing. As such, most of their clothes were made from animal skins and furs. The cold weather forced them to wear multiple layers of clothing. Caribou was a very common clothing material, as it was very light and easy to make into coats and boots. Instead of clothing sometimes, the Inuit would wear dried out whale intestines because they provided more of an insolence to water. Men and Women didn't wear different clothes, as everybody's clothing looked the same.

Relied heavily on the arctic animals for food. Because they were able to hunt in all seasons, a variety of animals could be collected. The Inuit specialized in hunting sea animals, especially whales. These huge food sources were hunted during the winter, and required the inuit to travel out on open water by boat. However, seals, beluga whales, and walrus were easily obtainable just be hunting on the ice. Summer was spent fishing and hunting caribou. In fall, fishing continued and hunting caribou became easier, as they traveled in large groups more towards winter.A large food source for the Inuit were whales, which were mostly hunted in the winter. This was a very long process, and was a very dangerous but effective way to get food.
Whales were a very large source of food, and could feed a large population for many weeks.

Some common features were around the Inuit were many valleys, hills some that were considered mountains, and glaciers.  These had caused the Inuit tribe some problems and some benefits since all there were all of these features everywhere.]]> 2017-08-16 15:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181274272 Relationships tgruca22 https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181277329 Relationships with other groups:
The Inuit Tribe did interact with other smaller groups in Canada. The smaller groups in Canada tried to sometime surprise attack the Inuit Tribe but had failed since they were smaller than the Inuit Tribe.]]> 2017-08-16 15:24:35 UTC https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181277329 Alaskan Coast dmarket22 https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181278679 - The Alaskan coast was the main spot for the Inuit to live and set up villages. There was a different species of food available for each season, and fish/water mammals were easy obtainable for food. (See interaction) The plentiful amount of snow provided good hospitality, as igloos were the main kind of housing.
With food and snow combined, the Alaskan coast was a great place for the Inuit to call home.

Siberia played an important part in food, as caribou and other large mammals would pass through. It was here that dogs were first used to aid in hunting.
The landscape of Siberia provided good hunting grounds, which helped expand villages and population.

When the Europeans arrived to Alaska they had some encounters with the Inuit Tribe. The Inuit tribe didn't know why the Europeans were there on their territory.  The Inuit had many deaths from the Europeans because they had brought new diseases causing mass deaths and lured many Inuits into their ships and took them back to Europe.  The Europeans had a mass affect to the Inuit Tribe and their survival.]]> 2017-08-16 15:31:07 UTC https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181278786 Way to America: dmarket22 https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181278956 - To get to America, (Alaska) the Inuit people were theorized to cross the Bering Land Bridge. This "Bridge" is a 1,000 mile grassland that connects Asia to North America. Plants, Animals, and People moved through it, which made migration a lot easier.
A picture of how the land bridge connected Siberia and Alaska. This bridge was very important, as it provided a path for many tribes like the Inuit to find new land.

The Inuit Tribe had used some forms of transportation. The Inuit tribe had used dog sleds to travel far places and across ice.  The Inuit Tribe also had made kayaks to travel in water.]]> 2017-08-17 15:04:43 UTC https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181455097 Geographical movement tgruca22 https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181457641 Geographical movement:

The temperature of the river is around 50 degrees, which allowed a lot of Alaskan aquatic life to prosper.

The area where the Inuit built villages and houses was above a large tree line in Alaska, so wood was very scarce. (See interaction) However, they did have mountains to work with. They provided rocks and other natural materials for architecture.

When things went badly, they believed that the spirits were unhappy, and a shaman had to make them happy again. The Inuit were artists, and made many sculptures. The Inuit wrote many of their stories and culture in other languages (See language) so people around the world could learn about them.
The Inuit would complete ceremonies to honor and celebrate the spirits.Only these stone monuments are left in Alaska.]]> 2017-08-17 17:54:01 UTC https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181494186 Technology tgruca22 https://padlet.com/tgruca22/9lu5zi00xyhq/wish/181639094 The Inuit had many technology ideas.
