Alaska Native Heritage Centre (US)
The Athabascan people traditionally lived in Interior Alaska, an expansive region that begins south of the Brooks Mountain Range and continues down to the Kenai Peninsula.
Today, Athabascans live throughout Alaska and the Lower 48, returning to their home territories to harvest traditional resources. The most important part of Athabascan subsistence living is sharing. All hunters are part of a kin-based network in which they are expected to follow traditional customs for sharing in the community.
