Ahiagmiut were a geographically defined Copper Inuit subgroup in the northern Canadian territory of Nunavut. They were located near Ogden Bay, [1] on the Queen Maud Gulf, and inland towards Back River, then on towards the Akilinik River. [2]
According to Arctic explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson, Ahiagmiut abandoned their sleds in the summer and proceeded to the Back River with back packs and pack dogs. [3]
Their hunting area was south of another subgroup, the Ekalluktogmiut, on the mainland. [4]
