    Hi - enjoyed the video, but the music was too loud. A nice quiet melody in the background would have been better.

    The Goose Creek Tower reminds me of the Sutyagin house that used to stand in Archanglsk. Even the building approach is similar.

      There is a wooden temple in Nara , Japan from 670 AD and a church in the UK that is almost 1000 years old . If the roof and foundation are kept up then wood can last for centuries . Concrete buildings are the same , it too needs upkeep .

      tbh lots of yup'ik and inupiat refer to themselves as eskimo. it's kind of a case by case basis. source: live in fbx and work with lots of native alaskans.

    • @aksez2u
      @aksez2u 3 роки тому +1

      Native Alaskans include both Eskimo and Indian people. Generally, the word Eskimo is not thought of as pejorative in Alaska. In Canada, the word Inuit is used for the indigenous peoples, but Alaska has Inuit, Yupik and Aleut groups. As a general rule of thumb, it is not wise to comment on things about which you are ill informed.
