Culture is defined as the stared patterns of behaviors learned through living together. The Haida tribe children are considered Eagles and Raven and are difficult to understand. They have a great of artistic expressions. They believed in the power of both human and animal. They wore basket hats and not the head dresses you see on Indians when you watch TV. They were very artistic. They made many items out of copper. Their copper shields and emblems were carved very beautifully. They traded seal fat for items they did not catch or harvest.
Interesting facts
I liked the totem poles. Their history and family history were carved on the totem poles. "From 1840 to 1940 carving and putting up totem poles was popular. The totem poles have now become less popular."
Another very interesting fact for me was their big canoes. The canoes could carry forty people and up to two tons of cargo. These canoes were 75 feet long and had fancy carvings.
