Blond Eskimos
Blond Eskimos is a term first applied to sightings and encounters of light haired indigenous peoples of the Arctic Circle region from the early 20th century, particularly around the Coronation Gulf between mainland Canada and Victoria Island. Sightings of light haired natives of the Arctic however stretch back to written accounts from the 17th century.〔F.W. Stokes; ''(THE BLOND ESKIMO, Known at Least a Century, Arctic Painter Finds )'', The New York Times, June 27, 1913, page 8〕
== Etymology ==
Christian Klengenberg is first credited to have introduced the term "Blonde Eskimo" to Vilhjalmur Stefansson just before Stefansson's visit to the Inuit inhabiting southwestern Victoria Island, Canada, in 1910. Stefansson, though, preferred the term Copper Inuit.〔("Further Discussion of the 'Blonde Eskimos'" ),''American Anthropologist'', vol. 24., 1922, p.229 (Archived version ) at the Wayback Machine〕 Adolphus Greely in 1912 first compiled the sightings recorded in earlier literature of blonde or fair haired Arctic natives and in 1912 published them in the ''National Geographic Magazine'' entitled "The Origin of Stefansson's Blonde Eskimo". Newspapers subsequently popularised the term "Blonde Eskimo", which caught more readers attention despite Stefansson's preference for Copper Inuit. Stefansson later referenced Greely's work in his writings and the term "Blonde Eskimo" became applied to sightings of light haired Eskimos from as early as the 17th century.〔''My Life with the Eskimo'', 1922, p. 199 (reprinted by Kessinger Publishing, 2004).〕
