The Ekalluktogmiut (also spelt Iqaluktuurmiutat[1] and Ikaluktuurmiut[2]) were a geographically defined Copper Inuit subgroup in Canada's Nunavut territory. They were located along the Ekalluk River near the center of Victoria Island, Albert Edward Bay in western Victoria Strait,[3] and Denmark Bay.[4] According to the Arctic explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the Ekalluktogmiut winter hunt on Dease Strait.[5]
