This hand carved totem is made of old growth Native yellow cedar grown deep in the rain forests of Southeast Alaska. This totem tells the story of Raven finding and releasing humankind from their clam shell.
MEASURES: 14 inches tall and 9 inches wide at wing-span
The world was dark inside where the humans lived. The kept themselves secret until one day a great bird would come to find them. And so it went Raven, who ruled the world, came upon a huge clam shell sticking out of the mud flats. He flew down, walked around it a few times, noticing a small crack. Raven cocked his head to one side. His eyes peering closer at the opening. He could hear unfamiliar voices coming from within the clam shell. Once again, Raven's curiosity gets the best of him. He thrust his beak into the clam shell with such force that the shell pops open. Startled, he steps back as mankind emerges from the shell. Astonished as Raven, the humans gasp at the sight of the mighty bird and the world around them. Raven knows that he has opened the door to his destiny.
Hand made in Ward Cove, Alaska
