Wolf Dancer Rattle2004-2/298

Spirit of the Ancestors-The Tlookwana is the most important winter ceremonial of the Nuu-chah-nulth. Initiate dancers are taken away by wolves, taught by them, and later recaptured by their family. After their recapture, they perform the dances given to them during their training. This rattle depicts a dancer wearing a traditional wolf headdress of the type worn during the Tlookwana.
