We have begun a month long investigation of the Northwest Coast Peoples. The lush environment of the Pacific Northwest Coast shapes the art and lives of its residents. We will discuss the basic needs of Northwest Coast Peoples 2,000 years ago. We will examine a halibut hook, cedar specimen, and other objects to infer how innovative peoples have harvested the rich resources of the Northwest Coast to meet their everyday needs. We will explore how symbolism carries meaning in totem poles, and create our own totem poles.
