DescriptionTotem Pole outside Byward Market (20725364386).jpg | Totem pole outside the Byward market in Ottawa, Canada. I had missed photographing it on my Nov. 2012 trip, and so made good on this trip in June 2015. This totem pole is located near to the parking lot for tour buses which call at the market. Totem poles are monumental sculptures carved on poles, posts, or pillars with symbols or figures made from large trees, mostly western red cedar, by indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest coast of North America (northwestern United States and Canada's western province, British Columbia). Totem poles are not religious objects, but they do communicate important aspects of native culture. Carvings of animals and other characters typically represent characters or events in a story. The carvings may symbolize or commemorate cultural beliefs that recount familiar legends, clan lineages, or notable events. The poles may also serve as functional architectural features, welcome signs for village visitors, mortuary vessels for the remains of deceased ancestors, or as a means to publicly ridicule someone.(Ottawa, Canada, June 2015) |
