Sea Monster Mask1-1451

The stories of seafarers are often peopled by monsters of the deep: bringers of bad weather, capsizers, devourers of men. The Yagim is all of those. Described as a destroyer of whole tribes, a shark-like monster who lurks behind canoes, or the source of storms, his name literally means badness. (Holm, Spirit and Ancestor, 1987)
