Tuktu- 1- His Nice New Clothes (making clothes from animal skins)
Alaska Extreme Store: www.redbubble.com/people/alas...
Learn about traditional Inuit culture from this fascinating series. This series documents cultural practices, skills, and values in Nunavut in northern Canada. Each episode focuses on a different topic, and does a good job of celebrating the skills and resourcefulness of the Inuit.
The territory of the Inuit (also called Eskimo, Inupiaq, Yupik, and other regional names) cover the northern and western regions of Alaska, northern Canada, and Greenland. The Inuit continue to live in these areas and maintain many cultural traditions while also incorporating some modern technology into their culture as well. Inuit continue to have a deep respect and spiritual connection with the land and its resources.
The Tuktu documentary series was produced by the National Film Board of Canada between 1966 and 1968.

These are the oldest Turkish tribes ...they didn't change their way of life.Before Bering left, some of them formed Indians when they moved to America.They belong to Shamanism, the oldest Turkish religion.I don't know if they have one god belief. However, the Turks are to be a single god .The name was "Gök Tengri".God of the sky.single and very large.The shamans are priests.You're showing the cross in vain.They are independent spirited and live only with deer ...

When my grandma was in her 70's, I remember her saying how she wished she could go back, and make her mother's life easier. I know she worked like a mule in the fields. Raised 4 kids, cooked & cleaned with no electricity or running water. They were so poor the kids would net robins for food - lead for bullets was expensive & game was scarce. They were tough people, in the Ozark Mountains.
Moms are the best gift in every tribe around the world.

The extreme survival skill of these people is an invaluable heritage for all of humanity. Before humans became the modern city dwelling electricity using man, we survived like this for thousands of years. The adaptation and the skills that these people possess is incredible, compare to us who care barely use the microwave to warm up a precooked food for ourselves.

But 70% of the world still lives without electricity. Much of Asia, Africa and Latin America. Most are still very much tribal affiliated. People from the West just don't realize how many people it is due to fact Westerners don't travel outside their box. People who live like this was taught to hate their orgins and was considered barbaic to Westerners. Now many suffer because of the West and the culture is dying.
In my first grade of school here in Canada in 1971, we regularly watched Tuktu films. Our school would get them from the NFB. It was something we all loved and looked forward to.
These people are so special! And yes they can live without mobile phones or other devices. They're always together so it's not complicated. And they are artists to me.
It's hard for most of us to imagine living a life like these Inuit did. I'm grateful to see their culture was recorded for all to learn about, for many generations.

I remember watching this at schools and isuma when i was younger, and it was fascinating to see my people from back in the day telling stories and what hunters looked like 50 years ago compared to today. most hunters today use traditional hunting skills in order to keep their culture and language alive. and intro and outro themes are the most calming i heard in any inuit documentary. there's probably no dialogue or audio in the recordings other than the background music and the narrator "tuktu" telling the stories in the series. (except when "tuktu" was talking, there was actually a exact same clip of him with a different name from a documentary that i remembered seeing in school but forgot what's the title was, and it was full inuktitut version were it has audio in it).
i love this series so. thank you.
I have been watching this documentary since last 4 years, don't know why.
Such a beautiful story. Makes me remember my childhood. When i was a kid.
There is joy and sadness in these memories. That defines wiatful and melancholy.

Thank you for the Inuit people's living in the United States and abroad, through their spiritual and mundane living the hold that much more a connection to the yearly snow, for them year round. I am grateful that Inuit are using and preserving their language and folklore, and keeping whole the practice and structure of Inuit life, without major interferences from the mainstream culture. I am thankful that the eskimos are able to be respected in modern times by government lw, etc. protecting their territories and even the greater environmentalists codes getting stronger to keep not just their but everyones ecosystem in health and sustainability. I think that with continued respect we may be ome worthy of hearing more wisdom and stories from these beautiful people shared. .

Ms. Magana, stop wishing and find a class and learn with their machines or go to your nearest sewing machine repair/dealer and start asking questions and try some of their machines. Don't ever sell yourself short! I'm a 48y.o. retired veteran... I learned to sew repairs from my mom a little but over the years and 22 countries, had 7 sewing machines and still learn new leather tooling and sewing etc. and I make traditional dance regalia for Boy Scouts for their dance and ceremonies in the order of the arrow. I've studied Native American cultures starting as a scout and try to learn as much from anyone with info to share. I taught friends but my kids don't seem too interested in these dying arts. As a suggestion, I got on half price books and am waiting on a book now called, Secrets of Eskimo Skin Sewing Secrets of Eskimo Skin Sewing Secrets of Eskimo Skin Sewing by Wilder, Edna. Start with imitation sinew and a steel needle and real or faux fur and just give it a try. If an old man can learn, I know you can too. As an Eagle Scout, trapper, hunter, bowyer etc., I hope to ignite a spark in you and others to preserve the original people's heritage... Good luck and remember to get a thimble:-)

Gen. 25:6 relates that Abraham sent the sons of Keturah away from Isaac “eastward, to the land of the East.” He told them: Go as far eastward as you can, so you will not be burnt by the burning coal of Isaac (Gen. Rabbah 61:7). In another tradition, Abraham sends the sons of Keturah away with a writ of divorce, as a wife is sent away from her husband. This notion is based on 25:6: “But to Abraham’s sons by concubines Abraham gave gifts while he was still living, and he sent them away from his son Isaac”; and this expulsion is both in this world and in the world to come (Pirkei de-Rabbi Eliezer, chap. 29).

If there were to be an apocalypse, end of world, the only people to survive are these. Living in these harsh climates is something no normal human beings can achieve.
