Yup’ik

The Yup’ik, or Yupik are a Native people from Alaska (comprised of the Central Yup’ik and the Alutiiq). They are related to the Inuit in Canada, the Yuiit or Siberian Yupik (also referred to as Chukchi in Siberia) and Iñupiat in Alaska, who have all been incorrectly lumped together as “Eskimos.”
