The summer tents that the Inuit people lived in were called tipis. A tipi is a cone-shaped house. The women were responsible for building the tipi. Often the tipi was built near water so they could easily fish and hunt water animals. The women would begin to build the tipi with at least twelve long poles that they would stand up in a cone shape and tie them together at the top. Once the poles were secured, the women covered the poles with caribou skins. The doorway of a tipi would face the rising sun in the east. They would make a fireplace in the middle of the tipi. The smoke of the fire would escape through the hole at the top of the tipi. Tipis were easily moved. It didn't take the women long to take down and set up a tipi.…

In 1976 as part of the land claims negotiations between the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (then called the Inuit Tapirisat of Canada) and the federal government, the division of the Northwest Territories was discussed. On April 14, 1982, a plebiscite on division was held throughout the Northwest Territories with a majority of the residents voting in favour and the federal government gave a conditional agreement seven months later. The land claims agreement was decided in September 1992 and ratified by nearly 85% of the voters in Nunavut. On July 9, 1993, the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement Act[6] and the Nunavut Act[5] were passed by the Canadian Parliament, and the transition was completed on April 1, 1999.…

The Inuits are also different because they live in the cold and this means that Inuits leave in coldest environment and they don't live in the same environment that the other tribes do.The units do travel with some of the same gear, but the Inuit use dogs unlike other tribes.Which means that the Inuits travel somewhat differently.…
Many cultures view the sexes in many different ways. Gender roles, marriage roles, and societal roles between the sexes can be very different across cultures. Nowak & Laird (2010) outline a few cultures. American society purports to strive for equality for all people, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, or race. We do not always achieve this goal, and we can still see many inequalities in our society, particularly between men and women. Endicott (1984) stated the Batek have always enjoyed equality between the sexes. In fact they do not see much difference between the two genders, besides a few physiological differences. Men and women perform day to day activities side by side. Men do most of the hunting, but that is not because women are not allowed, or encouraged to hunt. The same holds true for foraging. The women do most of the gathering of tubers and other plant materials, but men are not restricted from this activity. Men and women engage in child-rearing and interaction equally.…

The tundra is a very cold and hostile place for the sole reason of its climate. The tundra is a cold,dry and empty place because of permafrost. Permafrost is a thick layer of soil that stays frozen for the entire year. Because of this, most plants cannot grow here especially trees because they can't have their roots bury deep into the ground since it is frozen solid. The average temperature is around -18 degrees fahrenheit. During the summer the sun barely ever goes down and temperatures can range from 37° to 60° F.…
While our team was composed of completely different preference types (as classified by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator), we believe that such varying opinions led to our group’s success in the Subarctic Survival Simulation. In fact, our group boasted the highest team percentage change in the activity—43 percent. The team percentage change represents the improvements made in the ranking of survival tools through our team’s discussion from our individual assessments. The change shows how the group’s gain score (24.4) relates to the average individual score (56.4). Additionally, our gain score was the highest in the class, further showing the strengths of our teamwork during the survival simulation.…
I believe the act of deliberately sacrificing another human being is morally wrong, but there are some cases where it is justifiable. I also believe that cultural relativism plays a role in this, and that some societies view sacrificing others as morally right and that culture needs to be taken into consideration.…
Behavior of children living in the hunter-gatherer groups did not have much deviation between their genders. Children usually are not expected to learn their roles until much later when they are almost teenagers. Girls are generally the first to take on tasks because their mother’s usually want the extra assistance, and they will soon be expected to take on the responsibilities of her role in the !Kung group. Girls, however, are not expected to help out with younger children such as infants and toddlers because their mothers often take these young children with them when gathering. Boys are often begin to learn their roles much later that girls but are eventually taught by…
Exploring Alaska is as dangerous as swimming with sharks at their lunch-time. Alaska is a very unique state. It’s animals and other things are a sight to see. It also has a beautiful landscape, but the landscape is not so easy to get across. According to the documents, the climate is changing because of the ecosystem, the geography of Alaska makes it difficult to explore and settle, and there is no given shelter in Alaska, so that makes it difficult to keep exploring.…
