Native Alaskan and Her Baby
This Native American Alaskan and her baby were photographed in 1906. Notice how she kept her son safe from the chilly temperatures of the region by tucking him safely in her coat’s hood. At the time, the indigenous tribespeople of Alaska were considered the biggest group of Native Americans as there were five different tribes among them. These tribes included the Southern Coastal Indians, the Interior Indians, the Southern Eskimos, the Northern Eskimos, and the Aleuts.
