Esquimo people is the general name which defines indigenous people from different cultures, coming from the north of America and Asia. Literally the term “Esquimese” comes from the native language and it means “raw meat eaters”. But Esquimo people judge this definition as injurious and full of preconception. To obviate to this misunderstanding, Esquimo people ask to change the name of the population in “Inuit” wich means simply “men”.
