The term Eskimo is used to refer to a group of indigenous people living in the Arctic regions of Canada, Alaska, Greenland, and Russia. The term is derived from an Algonquian word meaning 'eaters of raw meat'. INUIT is the preferred term for this group of people, which is derived from the same root word as Eskimo and means 'the people'. PIE is a type of food traditionally eaten by the Eskimo, made from a mixture of seal or whale fat, berries, and other ingredients. DENE is the language spoken by the Eskimo, which is part of the Athabaskan language family.
