    Extractions: (Redirected from Totem poles Totem poles are monumental sculptures carved from great trees , typically Western Redcedar , by a number of Native American cultures along the Pacific northwest coast of North America featuring pictography Southern style totem pole in Victoria, British Columbia edit The beginnings of totem pole construction are not known though recent DNA evidence suggests Tlingit literature may date from thirty thousand years ago when the Bering Strait was still the Bering land bridge (Reed 2003, p.XX). Being made of wood they decay easily in the rainforest environment of the Northwest Coast, so no examples of poles carved before 1800 exist. However eighteenth century accounts of European explorers along the coast indicate that poles certainly existed at that time, although small and few in number. In all likelihood, the freestanding poles seen by the first European explorers were preceded by a long history of monumental carving, particularly interior houseposts. Edward Malin (1986) has proposed a theory of totem pole development which describes totem poles as progressing from houseposts, funerary containers, and memorial markers into symbols of clan and family wealth and prestige. He argues that the epicenter of pole construction was centered around the Haida people of the Queen Charlotte Islands , from whence it spread outward to the Tsimshian and Tlingit and then down the coast to the tribes of

Most of the works of art on display in the Gallagher Law Library are part of a collection assembled by artist John Feodorov for the Washington State Arts Commission /University of Washington Public Art Commission. With the encouragement of representatives of the UW School of Law, Mr. Feodorov was given the task of building a collection that honors the longstanding commitment the UW School of Law has made to the Native American community. Mr. Feodorov is a respected local artist and a member of the Navajo Nation. In proposing the collection he wrote: "For native peoples, cultural survival and tribal sovereignty are as much issues today as they were two hundred years ago. Land rights, whaling, fishing rights, mineral rights, religious freedom, identity, sovereignty, and racism are all continuing elements in the current relationship between Native Americans and federal and state governments. The art I have chosen for the UW School of Law provides opportunities for dialogue and brings insight into the Native American/United States relationship.” The list below identifies the artists, their tribal affiliations, the titles of their works, year of creation, and format. The links on the artists' names direct readers to additional information about the artists and the links from the artwork titles link to artists' comments.. See the

The Tlingit people of the Northwest Coast honor their ancestors and celebrate their future by means of objects that are "brought out" and dedicated during potlatches. These objects include clan hats, Chilkat blankets, houseposts, canoes, etc. and typically exhibit clan crests. Since the passage of NAGPRA in 1990, the Tlingit people have been actively working to repatriate objects that were inappropriately sold in the first half of the 20th century. The repatriation of these objects has engendered a cultural revival.

[1] American Indian art of the Pacific Northwest Coast is renowned for the distinctive designs used to decorate a variety of mediums. It is a formal design system developed over the centuries, and although there are stylistic variations from one cultural group to another, there are also many shared characteristics. Among the constants are the use of U-shaped elements and ovoid forms as the basic design units, and the use of black to outline and define the major aspects of a design. Another feature in common, especially on two-dimensional objects, is the splitting of images into two halves so that the whole is bilaterally symmetrical. It is quite common for the design to completely fill the field, this being accomplished either by manipulating existing elements or adding filler motifs.

    Extractions: Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Maps ... World Civilizations Encyclopedia of North American Indians It is a surprise to learn that the first instance of a Native American being photographed occurred in the Old World rather than the New. Kahkewaquonaby, also known as the Reverend Peter Jones—the son of a Mississauga mother and a Welsh father—was photographed in Edinburgh in August 1845 in Indian clothing and paraphernalia while on a British tour to raise funds for a proposed Indian school in Canada. The photographers were none other than David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson, the most celebrated collaborative team of the medium's first decade. In America in that same decade, some of the earliest American cameramen would capture historic images of no less than Keokuk, whose mesmerizing daguerreotype is but one of many portraits of Sauk and Fox tribesmen created by Thomas Easterly from his St. Louis base. By the 1850s Indian leaders were traveling east as treaty delegations to Washington, their colorful diplomatic presences obvious subjects for photographers' studios in the nation's capital. McClee's was the most long-lived of these studios. Such photographers as A. Zeno Shindler and Alexander Gardner produced memorable Indian images there and occasionally ventured out to record treaty gatherings on the frontier, as Gardner did in Wyoming in 1868. By the 1880s the much photographed Indian participants of the Buffalo Bill shows were evidence not only that the old ways were ephemeral, but that there was fascination enough over what was being lost to make exhibitions of it commercially successful. Photographers like Ben Wittick, A. Frank Randall, Camillus S. Fly, and George Wharton James in the Southwest, John Alvin Anderson, David F. Barry, Charles M. Bell, O. S. Goff, George Mooney, and George Trager among the Plains Indians, and Lloyd Winter and Percy Pond in Alaska are but a few of the names made illustrious by their late-nineteenth-century photography of Native Americans.

    Extractions: Conservation in Native Communities Since its founding in 1895, WCS has been an international leader in protecting and promoting a world rich in wildlife and wild lands through research, conservation, education, and partnerships with local communities. One of our most effective long-term conservation approaches is training the next generation of conservationists. Native American lands in the United States and First Nations lands in Canada contain a rich abundance of wildlife across a wide variety of landscapes. Parallel with our efforts around the rest of the world, WCS is working with native communities in North America to increase their capacity to conserve and manage biodiversity on their lands. Although many of these communities relate their cultural well-being with the health of the natural world and express a strong desire to sustain their wildlife, few community members have training in modern wildlife and habitat management skills necessary to meet this goal. WCS is working to address this problem through a long-term program of Native American/First Nation capacity-building that draws on our extensive experience working with indigenous groups around the world. In 2002, WCS initiated a program to support First Nations and Native Americans in wildlife conservation efforts. The strategies of this program are to:
