Asiagmiut (also Aziagmut)[1] were an Arctic coast Copper Inuit[2] group in Kitikmeot Region, Nunavut, Canada. They were located near Ogden Bay[3] east of the Coppermine River,[4] between the Coppermine River and Tree rivers,[5] west of Kent Peninsula,[4] east of Kent Peninsula,[6] and opposite Melbourne Island.[7] Hudson (1989) mentions the Asiagmiut, a Caribou Inuit group of the Kazan River area, who were subsistence hunters.[8]
