	Talk:Inuit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Having Eskimo redirect to Inuit is a fallacy, as is the usage of Inuit-Aleut languages instead of Eskimo-Aleut languages.
		Inuit does cover the people who live north of the tree line from the east coast of Greenland to where the Yupik communities start in Alaska.
		Inuit explicitly does not include the Yupik-- it's like using Chinese to describe all East Asians because the collective term "Oriental" is found offensive by some.

	East Asian Studies 210 Notes: Eskimo/Aleut
		Aleuts are thought to be distant cousins of the Eskimo, and most linguists recognize an Eskimo-Aleut language family, whose proto-form is thought to have been spoken in northeastern Siberia over 10,000 years ago.
		The Bering and Copper Island Aleuts are the descendants of a population moved there en masse by the Russians in the 19th century from more easterly islands in the Aleutian chain.
		The Aleuts had considerable knowledge of human anatomy, since they mummified the corpses of important people by removing the viscera, washing the body in a cold stream, and stuffing it with oiled sphagnum moss for preservation.

	Eskimo-Aleut languages - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It consists of the Eskimo languages, known as Inuit in the north of Alaska, Canada, and Greenland, as Yup'ik in the west of Alaska, and as Yuit in Siberia, on the one side, and the single Aleut language on the other.
		In Alaska, Yup'ik or Inuit is preferred, depending on who is being referred to.
		However, recent research suggests that Yup'ik by itself is not a valid node, or, equivalently, that the Inuit dialect continuum is but one of several languages of the Yup'ik group.
