Every year, all creatures return, and it was believed that fish and animals presented themselves to worthy hunters and gatherers. They observed how humans treated their bodies during the preservation process. Animal parts were used to create masks for festivals. Bladders of birds or animals were dried and inflated like balloons. Small representations of animals were hung on strings from the four corners of the communal Qas’giq, shaking in rhythm to the drums. These celebrations were held to give thanks to Ellam Yua.

After the celebration, the animals returned to Ellarpiim Yua and reported that they had been treated well by the humans. They requested permission to return through hunting, fishing, and gathering to celebrate thanksgiving at the next festival. Pleased with the love and respect humans showed for one another, Ellarpiim Yua granted the fish and wildlife permission to celebrate life with humans again. The late elders believed that Ellam Yua was the same as Christ Jesus after the missionaries arrived with the Bible.

You have received 5-Loyalty points for leaving a review on your order. I am so happy for you and for the retiree receiving the artwork. Even an Iranian President from 2008 has an original artwork from one of the doctors at YKHC. There are a few others around the world, 2-Poland, 3-Isreal, New Zealand, Australia, Hawaii and few other states, but mostly in Alaska. Your purchase helped purchase gifts for my granddaughter's Headstart Graduation, and gifts for 12-kids at their potluck. Quyana Cak'neq!
