Disc numbers, or ujamiit or ujamik in the Inuit language, were used by the Government of Canada in lieu of surnames for Inuit and were similar to dog tags. Prior to the arrival of European customs, Inuit had no need of family names, and children were given names by the elders. However, by the 1940s the record-keeping requirements of outside entities such as the missions, traders and the government brought about change. In response to the government's needs, it decided on the disc number system.

- Les numéros de disque esquimau, ujamiit ou ujamik en langue inuit, sont des identifiants administratifs individuels pour la population des Inuits mis en place le gouvernement du Canada entre 1941 et 1978, de manière similaire aux plaques d'identité militaire. Utilisés en guise de nom de famille, ces disques étaient généralement cousus sur les vêtements ou portés autour du cou avec un lacet. (fr)
