Native Carving - Native Bears with Sun Table by Stan C Hunt C2010
The Bear is one of the most prevalent figures in crest and shamanic art, as well as in myths. It is considered to be a close relation of humankind, perhaps because of physical characteristics such as size, appearance, and expression, and behaviors such as sanding on two hind legs, gathering plants and berries, fishing and nurturing young, the Sun is not a very common crest, except perhaps among Kwakwakawakw where it figures in some lineages as an ancestor. One myth speaks of an illustrious sky-dwelling ancestor who each morning dons a glorious cloak of abalone shell and walks across the firmament.
