Detailed explanation-1: -What generalization can be made by comparing the lifestyle of the Inuit of the Arctic to the lifestyle of the Natchez in the Southeast? One group adapted better to their environment than the other.
Detailed explanation-2: -Inuit are the descendants of what anthropologists call the Thule people, who emerged from western Alaska around 1000 CE. They had split from the related Aleut group about 4000 years ago and from northeastern Siberian migrants. They spread eastward across the Arctic.
Detailed explanation-3: -Most Inuit wintered either in snow-block houses generally referred to as igloos (iglus or igluvigaqs, depending on dialect) or in semisubterranean houses built of stone or sod over a wooden or whalebone framework. In summer many Inuit lived in animal-skin tents.
