TLINGIT

The Tlingit are a North American Indian people of the north west coast, living in south Alaska and north British Columbia. They used to carve wooden poles representing their family crests, showing such animals as the raven, whale, octopus, beaver, bear, wolf, and the mythical 'thunderbird'. Their language is related to the Athabaskan languages.
