To The North


Why did Inuits, Aleuts, Yupik, Eskimos, etc., settle down in the northernmost lands of the world?  Why endure the bitter cold, the cruel hardships of Greenland, northern Canada & Alaska, Siberia, or northern Scandinavia?  Was it for want of challenge?  Isolation?  Did they simply feel drawn to the Arctic, in their spirits?

I'd like to search them out and find the answers.
