AN ALUTIIQ DANCE

 
 

Enlace: http://www.mnh.si.edu/arctic/features/fisher/index.html

Descripción: National Museum of Natural History. Smithsonian Institution. Arctic Studies Center.
«Each fall, after the end of salmon fishing and the berry harvest, the Alutiiq people of southern coastal Alaska held a series of festivals and spiritual ceremonies that lasted throughout the winter months. Dances and accompanying songs addressed powerful spirits who could help or harm human beings, and appealed to the souls of animals upon whom life depended.»
