Dena'ina people

The Dena'ina (also called Tanaina ) are Alaska Natives who live in the area of Cook Inlet in south-central Alaska. The present population is estimated at 1400, of which talk about 70 Dena'ina, a dialect of the Athabaskan languages. They are the only of the northern Athabaskan who live on the coast, so they could be settled by fishing.
