EYAK IIYAAQ : Click for TLINGIT or AHTNA   Eyak Territory: South central coastal Alaska.   Portals .   Eyak Corporation Cordova, Alaska   Native Village of Eyak / Iiyaaq Eyak, Alaska Eyak Population United States (2018) - 325 N A - D E N E PACIFIC     COMMENTS   For a long time, ethnographers and map makers misclassifed the Eyak as a Yupik group and they were named "Ugaiahmute" or "Ugalakmut". During the Russian era, the Tlingit were attacking north and conquering Eyak Territory....thence, Yakatag Clan territory. However, this early 1802 clearly shows Eyak Territory extending southward, all the way to Yakutat Bay! The current Eyak Tribe may more be accurately described as polyglot group including the Eyak, Tlingit, Ahtna, and a great many Unangax.
