管窥加拿大原住民

加拿大原住民分三种:第一民族(First Nations),因纽特人和梅蒂斯人。根据基因研究,第一民族源于中国。从2万6千年前到1万1千年前,逐猎的中国部落追着野兽在冰川时期跨过了白令海峡的路桥进入了美洲。大约在8千年前,依靠北冰洋渔猎的美洲人形成了一个独特在北极圈里生活的文化,就是因纽特人。最初学者们称呼北极圈里的原住民为爱斯基摩人,“爱斯基摩”是吃生肉的人的意思,因纽特人对这种殖民者给他们的称呼非常不满。上世纪79年代加拿大放弃了爱斯基摩这个称呼,采用因纽特人的称呼。“因纽特人”是因纽特人自己对自己的称呼。也有一种观点认为因纽特人是从亚洲进入美洲的第二波人,是西伯利亚的通古斯人。梅蒂斯人是欧洲皮毛贸易者的男性和第一民族的女性生下来的后裔,形成了他们自己独特的语言文化。
