The name 'Eskimo' comes from the language of the northern red Indians and
means a person who eats raw meat. It is an appropriate name because the
Eskimos live mainly by hunting and fishing and in winter do not always cook
the animals they catch. This is because it is impossible to find any fuel for fire
in the icy waste that they inhabit. The only form of fire they have is produced
by burning the oil of seals and whales in shallow, saucer shaped lamps made
from pottery or stone. These lamps are used primarily to give light but the
Eskimos can also boil their meat and fish over them these foods are also
frozen or dried. There is another reason why the Eskimos sometimes eat raw
meat: in this way they get the greatest possible nourishment. The Eskimos
make up for the lack of vitamins from vegetables by eating the kidneys and
the livers of their prey raw. These organs have an abundant store of all the
vitamins needed for the body.
