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.

Alaska Extreme El Senor De Los Cielos
I would like to see something on the whale hunters if possible. Cheers!!
It would be great to see how hides are cleaned and tanned/smoked from a perspective of a person who wants to learn how. The same goes for any food preservation skills that can still be practiced today. I live up North in Canada and so many of the old ways of the local First Nations have been lost. Making clothes would also be great. Thank you.
In these days of broken families this explains the importance of a Father figure better than I ever could.
Think it was team effort that built the bonds they had ... we live more like insects today than men
These days people have more choices and life much easier
Yes, it is lovely to hear the admiration he has for his father. Nowadays, so many many young white men speak begrudgingly or belittlingly of their fathers, yet cannot give a rational reason why they are so resentful except for what they learn in school about how white men are the cause of all wars and social problems and wrecked the planet. I wish more men of my generation and younger love and admire their father like I do, and like the man in this documentary does.
People who were in touch with themselves, each other and their environment in a way that seems impossible today.
@@daraa151and yet everyone is depressed
This documentary serie on Inuit civilization is more than precious. It visually documents life that still existed less than a century ago and back to 20,000 years ago or more in the great glaciations with actual video of it ! Our long ago distant ice age ancestors had to be as clever as this to survive which is no less than today and more.
Every day night I sleep after listening the narration. It became lullaby to me
yes i hear you but i need to watch it to see what they are doing
That is a nice way of approaching and understanding to this gorgeous documentaries.
Same here
Same here
this is soo beautiful, the way he used his teeth to straighten the wood shaft is also common here in Africa,
the people are soo in tuned with nature ,i hve really enjoyed this video .
May our ancestors keep on living forever in us who carry their spirits in our DNA.
right on
This just proves that while folk don't know shit lol
@@waynelevi5053 there are plenty of “white people” cultures who do this.
Love how they’re all smiling. Seems so not stressful.
When the cameras on lol
They barely knew what they were
@@neptunearnatuk6378 they know exactly what they are
Amazing people in a time that no longer exists. These videos are a treasure.
I remember watching this on CBC in Canada during the 80's. I am of Korean ethnicity, and I grew up in a 100% white neighbourhood. Everyone kept on mistaking me for Inuit. I felt honoured for being mistaken as Inuit because of watching heritage shows like these.
*Inuk. Because the word inuit is plural and means people. Singular Inuk and the word means a person.
@@daveshen0880 Thanks for the correction!
This is something they would probably played when i still attended high school and I’d probably fall asleep in class while it played. Now I find these so interesting 😊
2:17 haii
I am up north, born and raised inupiaqluguu from Kotzebue. Grew up in Point Hope Alaska. Ariigaa taikuu (thank you).
When my uncle and I were dog mushing in Wasilla Alaska we got a dog from Kotzebue. That dog on the coolest of nights would never even sleep in his dog house lol.
Not in Alaska
@@logan-mercer6045 same people. You are welcome to leave. Would you like a refund, Sherlock?
I just love the way it's narrated
Gyati Buda me too!! I’m addicted to this for some reason
Reminds me of the old malcom Douglas adventures
We watched many of these at school with a film projector.
@@stepbro4978 I can remember seeing this in school also loved it 🙂🚬
their smiles overcome the hardships!
What a lovely series, so kind, gentle, informative.It was good they preserved it at the time so we have the record before people die and memories fade.
8:45 nicly lashed connection there. Beautifully crafted all around. It will kieel.
I love!!!!Forged inFire!@@!
A very hard way of life compared to mine but admire their stoicism. I hope their traditions and way of life are never lost.
They already are essentially
Tradition still not lost proud to be inuk Rn. But it’s different hunting now there’s boats Honda’s guns skidoo’s trails a town technology and all!! I am inuk
@@logan-mercer6045 yea at best 50/50 Inuit/modern culture. Bow&arrow+dog teams isn’t a reliable way to live when there are rifles and vehicles. I’m qalipu First Nations here in Newfoundland, where i live in St. John’s which is of course a modern city but I have lived with many native lifestyles during my life although most were removed by the Roman Catholic Church.
I would like to see videos of traditional hunting, fishing, shelter building, daily living, etc. Thanks for creating this channel!
I'm in love with their big smiles 😅
Your video make me sleep i always play your video when im having a hard time to sleep and it always work 🤣
The Inuit are an amazingly advanced and innovative people, we owe them so much even our high tech society owes much to them.
In the 19th century, Europeans were using a primitive harpoon known as the One flue harpoon and they actually adopted the Inuit toggling harpoon because it was a superior design and still to this day whaling harpoons trace their design back to those used by the Inuit, unfortunately, we abused the technology through with our incessant slaughter of whales :(
Other innovative technologies include the famous Parker, the Kayak of course, the toboggan, the worlds first sunglasses, this amazingly complex bow design and the dog sled.
Thats not high tech.
Inuit harpoon is indeed better but I would not call it high tech. And the snow goggles are slits in wood whereas sunglasses are really a totally different thing. The kayak is something I would call genius.
@@aw1300 The inuit were very high tech for a hunter-gatherer society
I think the most golden days of mankind ... and most reliable period .
wonderful put this back on tv please
As a traditional bowyer, it's cool to see how these people do it with minimal tools, I reckon this is the closet we have to seeing what ice age hunters were like
These videos are priceless. Thanks.
Кизикарли филм учун админ сизга рахмат яна кутиб коламан
love how their bows don't break when they keep dry firing.
Thousands of years of tradition unhampered by progress.
Thanks
Thank you very much 🙏😍🌺💖🌟💞
i love this life style..thanks for this documentary.
Go there

Fantastic series😊
Thanks for uploading 😊

Amazing
If this guys join olympic bow arrow sure win...
Absolutely👍👍👍
I am always amazed at their use of the third hand, throughout this series I see it all the time they use the mouth and teeth to hold, process or otherwise act as a third hand.
I see this a lot sometimes because I live in Alaska tununak but I still watch these
Its amazing how happy these people are in an environment most of us would very easily be overcome by. Most of the children you see in these videos would easily outlast the heartiest of modern men.
Bonne continuation et bon courage
Very well Documented Pic. 👌👍
The fish weir that has been there for 300 winters oral history going back to the 1650's. Amazing!
very interesting video
Thanks ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
சுதந்திரமான மனிதர்கள்.வாழ்த்துகிறேன்
Hermoso documental
I love this smell of real life.
Love archery history this is such a cool video, I find it interesting they don't seem to have a full draw or anchor point when they shoot.
i think they hunt the swimming caribou, so they get very close and dont need good aim.
Thats because they are more intelligent than you and they would never try to appear clever spouting some modern technical shite
@@-Oclock well no they talk about several animals that are hunted with the bow and generally you wouldn't fletch an arrow if you didn't care about your aim, clearly they are very accurate with the bow, the OP isn't saying they aren't accurate because they don't use an anchor point just that it's interesting.
Super dokument. 👍
Simple and beautiful life ... no stress... !
Plenty of strees
Just life and death, every day and night
They did mention famine actually. The series shows the gentle side and I suspect may have been made for children originally so they choose not to show hunger and death
Jane, Every Culture has experienced Hunger, deprivation, and throughout History, Starvation!! Can we, now living fat and happy, recognize these People for what they were able to accomplish?
Great.
great
So simple and nice people
I like this video
Piękny film.Piękni ludzie.
Myszlisz
Take me back an age, back to better days.
THE best.nice.instrutiv.
Amazing people .
Thanks ! Hurrah ! Hurrah !
My grandfather was stationed in the aleutian islands during ww2. He killed a polar bear that was chasing an eskimo native. The man made a bear skin rug from the bear and gave him dolls and other pieces of native art. It was probably worth thousands all together but it was all lost during hurricane Katrina.
So sorry
well you think of it as "dollars"...I guess you didn't deserve the items
So beautiful movie
Best Regards to al
Wspaniali szczęśliwi ludzie. Nasza cywilizacja jest chora.
So very much
In old times hobbies were learning skills to survive unlike nowadays!
True! Now, we are driven by something inside of us to connect with our primal selves, even though it isn't necessary to survive. As modern humans, we go hiking (even though it's no longer necessary), we catch and release fish (even though it's more efficient to just buy commercially caught fish), we build fires in our fireplaces just to stare at (even though our homes have heating), and we learn to sew and craft (even though everything is on Amazon). Even though we have the easiest lives in history, there is something deep inside of us that drives us to practice our primal skills, even though we don't need them to survive.
I love your replies to people. In contrast to many on UA-cam, you do not take offense, and you answer the questions in a warm and very informative way. So wise :)
Other playing fortnite,pubg. And ordering burger to mcdonalds thats why they live shorter
Al;though even in the 1970s in England my sister and I were out in the woods looking for yew trees to make bows and arrows (yew was the wood of choice of Robin Hood in England in English oral tradition)
@@AlaskaExtreme So well put.
Muito bom seu vídeo abraço
The intro is like, real life Conan the Barbarian.
I would love to see how Tuktu son grew up and turned out, I'm sure things have changed but if he still uses some techniques his father taught him
Awesome documentary. Does anyone know what is the temperature during a typical summer in this region ?
Thanks
12 to 19 degrees max
Did they ever shoot footage of the gathering of berries and greens?
Real living 💪
These people are brave and tough
Composite caribou shortbow interesting. Odd how they were simply lashing the prices together rather than utilizing hide glue. And for how little those bows were. And what's up with the dry firing?
Thank you for sharing. Very interesting. Would be nice to show the distance at which they practiced the bow shooting. Surprised me then they dry-shot the bows to try them which is no-no in archery. And the targets were in the form of people - probably it shows a hard competition for resources there, I think.
I noticed the snowmen targets. I would guess that there was competition for scarce resources.
Or father and mother is our heaven in this earth..tq for sharing
I would love to see and hear the drumbeats songs and dances of the people
I have few, could share one if you give me your email :)
Stress free, no money, no credit cards, no mortgage, no polution...just live off the land day by day.
Stress free not.the rest true
Where is tuktu (or his children ) now?
A respectable people who live of their own hands and toil only.
And there are so many channels dedicated to "survival" yet how many of these people are capable of creating the tools to hunt big game.
Where the hell did they get the shafts for the arrows in that barren landscape?
I like that video it's very great and it's similar of the Philippines
Real and natural way to live , where the cimical is not involved in people's life and everything is organic and those are live longer than us !
Muito bom gostei muito pena que. Não esta em português
😊😊😊😊😊
MashAllah very nice video no Tax on V A T
I love the way they can dry-fire a bow until it's only 30lb draw weight and still be able to kill a polar bear with it.
Inuits had plenty of harpoons, spears, bows and arrows, snow knifes, igloos, parkas, snow shoes, canoes and kayaks
Интересно сохранились ли у эскимосов с аляски какие -либо предания о противостоянии с чукчами
His father can heal the world I think....
real humans
What wood did they use in Alaska to make the bow and arrow?
6:26 and 7:50
GREAT ESKIMO
I has friend from Alaska, mr
Dunn Donaldson
Interesting that they made human targets for showing off their skills with a bow.
good observation.
why not? When you go to a shooting range you have human silhouettes, right?
Give me the music of this film pls. Flute or trumpet... what's kind of music ? Tks
The atlatl is a much easier way and my inuvaliktun teacher let us watch these nice to finaly see these again
👍👍👍👍
I would had loved to be an inuit. These people were much happier without todays technology.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
alaska eles nao tem faca tesoura ?
I wonder what the draw weigh of Taktu's father's bow was. Those bows didn't seem like they were heavy to pull.
@@hewhodoes8073 I wonder what the appropriate drawlenght for this type of bow is. Usually it is the lenght of the limb or about 42% of the bending length of the bow but it seems that this type of construction won't be so generous. One of the bows was drawn to elbow pit even though it seemed to have the length for longer draw.
There are people in Alaska who still live like this today though they go to school still wearing traditional clothes. They live near an oil well, they were in a Runner's world due to one of the people of a Nearby more modern tribe when going to the school they found she was a great runner in Cross Country, later long trail ultra races so then when she was contacted by Runner's World she offered to take them back to the area and they got her tribe as well as the other becuse both tribes were close though the traditional tribe did not except modern things other then plastic frame sunglasses as the only improvement.
