This is a raven inside the sacred circle of life. Umel was the Chief over all of the Ancients and he was the one who gave our people the first winter dance the Tuxw'id "Warrior Dance". We named the group after our old people's Kwakwala Raven's Arts and Crafts Society who used to dance in the early 60's and 70's. It is also to remember Umel and where our dances first began.
