Why I brought up this subject? For the last two days, I have watched an ad for a mobile phone that featured Eskimos.
Greenland was home to a number of Paleo-Eskimo cultures in prehistory, the latest of which disappeared around the year 200 AD. Hereafter, the island seems to have been uninhabited for some eight centuries.
I think I was in my 5th standard when I first studied about Eskimos and their amazing huts. From that time onwards, I wanted meet an Eskimo in person but that is impossible in this hot Madras.
So, I was fascinated to watch Eskimos on the television advertisement but are they real or just made up?
Whatever it may be, I enjoyed the advertisement.
