    I read that before the Inuit spread throughout northern Canada and Greenland, there were already inhabitants there that are part of the Paleo-Eskimo or Dorset group. I wonder if they're also speakers of the Eskimo-Aleut languages.

      The language of the Paleo-Eskimos is unknown. It is unknown if it was distantly related to the Eskimo-Aleut

      The Turks gave this name to the archipelago, known as the "Aleutian Islands", located between Asia and America. Originally it was “Alauç” in Proto Turkish, and when separated as “Ala-Uç” it means “White tip”. Because although the word "al" means "red" color in today's Turkish, it means "white" in protoTurkish. Snowy fields and white hills were called "al", later the concept of "height" came to the fore and changed to the color of the flag (Red). Indeed, "alba" means to stand high in Latin. Calling Albanians "albanian" and Albanians "albanian" derives from this Proto-Turkish root word.

    Los nombres de dioses aztecas, mayas e incas son turcos o proto-turcos.
    Xochiquetzal: Diosa de la belleza y las flores. Si leemos aquí que [quetzal] es [kutsal], Xochi es [çok], entonces ha surgido el nombre [Çok kutsal].
    Xochi + quetzal
    Çok kutsal (ortografía turca)
    Muy santo - sagrado
    Generalmente, el carácter "X" al comienzo de la palabra se lee como la letra "Ç" en turco.
    Los caracteres con la letra "ch", que suelen estar uno al lado del otro, se pronuncian como la letra "Ş" en turco.
    Xiuhtecuhtli: dios del fuego y el tiempo, tiene un doble deber que significa "doble = dos", y "çifte" se lee como "kutlu".
    Xiuhte + cuhtli
    Çifte + kutlu(ortografía turca)
    La palabra [Kutlu] proviene de la raíz [kut] en turco antiguo.
    Kut, por otro lado, indica un dios que es supremo sobre todos los seres.
    Por lo tanto, la palabra [kutlu] tiene los significados de enviado por dios, elegido por dios, subordinado a dios. En turco de hoy, tiene buenas noticias, significados auspiciosos y hermosos.
    Kinich Ahau: Dios maya del sol.
    Kinich o Küniş es casi lo mismo que la palabra turca para "Güneş". El nombre "Künhan" en la antigua creencia turca Güneş-Han es uno de los nombres que se le da al sol sagrado. Llama la atención la proximidad de las palabras Ahau y Han.
    Kinich Ahau
    künhan
    chac= çak
    Es el dios maya del rayo.
    Esta palabra, que se lee como "çak", sigue existiendo en nuestro idioma como "yıldırım çaktı" aún hoy.
    Yıldırım çaktı = un rayo cayó
    (ortografía turca)
    Cuando leemos el nombre del dios como "kutsal katlı", aumenta la similitud semántica y simbólica.
    Significa el dios que existe en todas partes del universo, en todas las capas del mundo y del universo. Tiene el mismo significado que Tengri en Asia Central.
    (Quetzalcoatl, mismo significado que Tengri)
    uso en una oración
    7 [katlı] bir binadalar.
    Están en un edificio de 7 [pisos]
    5 [katlı] bina yaklaşık 20 metre yüksekliğindedir.
    El edificio de 5 [pisos] tiene unos 20 metros de altura.
    Quetzal= Kutsal= santo, sagrado
    Quetzalcoatl
    quetzal + coatl
    kutsal + katlı

Calling Albanians "albanian" and Albanians "albanian" derives from this Proto-Turkish root word.
    the facts are concealed by creating a false Uto-Aztec language group. The oldest language in the world is Proto Turkish. In Aztec-Maya-Inca languages, each nation finds a few words they use. They are very surprised when they find these words. Like the Jews, the Albanians. Because Turks came to Europe, the Middle East and Africa thousands of years ago and the words they used were taken by the nations around them. Native American languages belong to the proto-Turkish language group.
    It is normal for these words to be almost identical to each other.
    When we look at the past for the similarity between the words in the Jewish language and the Native American languages, the Sumerian civilization emerges. Sumerian and Native American languages belong to the proto Turkish language group.
    It seems that the Jewish language was heavily influenced by the Sumerian language. But they are not aware of this.
