Where did inupiat live?

The Inupiat, an Indigenous people of Alaska, primarily inhabit the northern and northwestern regions of the state, particularly along the Arctic coast and in the North Slope Borough. Their traditional territory extends from the Chukchi Sea in the west to the Beaufort Sea in the east. Communities such as Barrow (Utqiaġvik) and Kotzebue are among the key areas where Inupiat culture and lifestyle thrive. They have adapted to the harsh Arctic environment, relying on subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering.
