Title
Kwakiutl (Kwakwaka'wakw) village, canoes, houses, and totem poles
Description
From Anthropology data: Note that the sterns of the canoes are towards the shore. The paths along the beach were made so that the canoes could be drawn up without injury. Note that the canoes are covered to keep them from being split if the sun should shine.
