Algonquian word meaning "eaters of raw flesh." That no longer seems so certain, as Cecil alluded to in this column http://www.straightdope.com/columns/010119.html Some linguists now believe it may come from an Algonquian word meaning "netters of snowshoes." In either case, there is no other word besides "Eskimo" that can refer to all Eskimos.
