Found in | Turner, L.M. An Aleutian ethnography, 2008: p. xiii (the Association of Unangan/Unangas Educators has urged the abandonment of the term Aleut; the association stated that Elders often use 'Aleut' but want to hear us say Unangan (Eastern Aleutian Islands) or Unangas (Western Aleutian Islands)) Black, L. Aleut art : unangam aguqaadangin, unangan of the Aleutian Archipelago, 1982. Sertori, T. First peoples of the Arctic : Unangan of Aleutian Islands, Inuit of Canada and Greenland, Sami of Sapmi, 2009. Lost villages of the Eastern Aleutians, 2014: page vii (Aleut and Unangax̂ (with its grammatical and regional variations) are used somewhat interchangeably, but with a tendency to employ Aleut in contexts where that word was historically used and Unangax̂ at other times; Unangan, although typographically convenient and easier to pronounce, is the eastern plural and not the collective noun) |
