Ita. A tribe of Eskimo between lat. 

 76° and 78° 18^ w. Greenland. Their 

 principal village (Etah), from which they 

 take their name, is at Foulke fjord; their 

 chief hunting grounds are Whale and 

 Wolstenholme sds. When first visited 

 by Ross in 1818 they possessed neither 

 canoes nor arrows. The art of l)nilding 

 kaiaks, long forgotten, was introduced 

 after 1873 by immigrants from Baffin 

 land, who came by way of Ellesmere land. 

 They hunt seal, their principal food, on 

 the floes of the bays and walrus at the 

 floe edges, and in summer they kill cari- 

 bou in the mountains. They live in 

 almost complete isolation, without salt, 

 with scarcely any substance of vegetal 

 origin, in the northernmost climate inhab- 

 ited l)y human beings, having no food 

 besides meat, blood, and blubber; no 

 clothing except the skins of birds and 

 animals. Pop. in 1 8-54, according to Kane, 

 140; in 1884, according to Nourse, 80; 

 Peary enumerated 253 in 1895, reduced 

 by disease to 234 in 1897. Their villages 

 and camping places at various times are:
