My Totem Pole Research

The Tlingit Community House is an example of the totem of Tlingit (Frank, 2014). A symbolic of animal form that is laid out in a two-dimensional abstract pattern, with an extensive gently slanted roof, attractively painted façade (Frank, 2014). The flat surfaces of the Tlingit Community House show geometric shapes of beavers, bears, also whales, and ravens. Furthermore, the totem pole in the center contains stacked images that help a family are a clan to reminisce about their history back to mythological periods (Frank, 2014). Also, the Tlingit community house is characteristic of the art and style of that region (Frank, 2014). However, a totem is an object such as an animal or plant that operates as a symbol of a family or tribe (Frank,

For my symbol I decided to make the tree that Boo Radley used to give gifts to Jem and Scout. In To Kill A Mockingbird, the tree was Boo Radley’s only way to communicate with the world outside of his home. When Scout describes the trees she says that their roots reached out to the side-road and made it bumpy which symbolises the way Boo tried to reach out to the children by leaving gifts for them in the knothole of the tree. I think that the branches of the tree illustrate all of the rumours that surround Boo Radley in Maycomb County and the knothole at the centre of the tree was the real Boo who was nowhere near as scary and dangerous as everyone made him out to be. When Boo Radley’s brother Nathan plugged up the knothole with cement, it showed

If a totem was painted the colors would have symbolized directions. North was represented by the color yellow. Blue was symbolic of the west. Red was the south while the north was represented by white (Page 43).

The Gwaii Haanas Totem Poles represent and commemorate ancestry, histories, people, and or events. Each totem pole is designed differently with beings or crest animals. These markings show a family lineage and the rights and privileges that each family held during the time they lived in. Some totem poles honoured a specific event or person, and others are visual representation of kinship. These totem poles don’t really tell stories, they are documents of how each family lived or what they did. Totem poles were first brought up by the First Nations of the Pacific Northwest. During the First Nations they had what was called memorial or commemorative poles. These poles were often created, by their successor,

Totem poles are monuments created by First Nations of the Pacific Northwest to represent and commemorate ancestry, histories, people, or events. Totem poles are typically created out of red cedar, a malleable wood relatively abundant in the Pacific Northwest, and would be erected to be visible within a community.

For the totem pole project we needed to show the past, present and future with the given animals, for my past i choose the frog and the cat. Since the frog represented new, i thought it would be good because i was just born, and only growing as what the frog represented. Secondly i choose the cat, since the cat shows feminism, and me being a female this would be good, also i do activities that are feminine such as painting my nails, and doing makeup.

My Tattoo is a symbol of my modern life. It represents not only my personality but my life and my passions. Every image represents me, Every colour represents me and every little bit of detail represents me, my perfectionist needs and my life. The colours are just a little hint to that. Most importantly my shaka (hand) is a way of showing my surfer/skater personality, The people are my family. Although it is unspecicefied who is who my dad is the person furthest away from the others because he lives in Australia. The hand also has a NZ flag on it due to our surfy way. The quote, Is from Tupac: If you can make it through the night there’s a brighter day.Tupac Who was a inspirational and controversal rapper whose music I personally like. The

Thank you for the post. I would say that this is a very controversial topic and unfortunately generally the lowest guy on the totem pole ends up taking the blame if something goes wrong. Such actions are detrimental to mission success and sometime they even send the wrong message to subordinates. I know that is may not be realistic, but I still think that the analysts need to be independent to a point, to where their analysis could be free not only of bias that already exists, but undue external influence as well.

The word totem derives from the Algonquian word “odoodem” meaning kinship group. You can see how that represents a totem pole well because a ceremony for a new pole is watched by hundreds of tribe members. More than just beautiful carvings, totem poles represent myths, legends, and honourable stories of families or tribes.

I believe the shield I made represents myself meticulously. Starting with the color of my shield. I painted my shield silver because silver represents sensitivity, and mystery. This color is also meant to reflect negative energy back to where it came from. I chose a peacock to represent myself because it represents integrity which means staying true to your values and yourself. I chose the quote “The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.” I selected this quote because while playing sports and doing activities people have told me I will never be able to achieve a goal I’ve been working towards. After someone tells me that it makes me want to work harder to achieve my goals intentions objectives. Lastly to symbolize

In my coat of arms, I have many symbols and things that relate to my family. I put them in for different reasons, but they all somehow relate back to me and my family. To start, I chose wolves for my coat of arms because wolves are very tight knight and care about their pack above all else. Just as my family is very tight knight, and care about each other more than anything. The two hands holding a heart and the fires under them, is meant to represent holding onto kindess, gently cradling it and letting the flames warm it until it can grow into something much bigger. Ever since I was a child my parents have taught me to be kind, no matter who or what it was. Now I am growing up and, and having been taught this it helped me form many other

The last thing that I selected to portray me is a jar full of pretty oddities and ornaments. I believe this shows one of the most important things about me. In other words, it indicates my organization and thought process, which seems practically nonexistent to most people, but I find a lot of method to it. My room is usually like that jar on steroids. It makes no sense to whoever stumbles upon it by accident, but it is easy to unravel when you see it all the time. I feel like this represents the basics of me, as I

The symbols in my colored pencil drawing represent me. My drawing is of a youtube home page with various videos of things i like. My first item is youtube, because i enjoy watching videos when i am bored. My second item is a NFL logo because i like to watch football every sunday. My third symbol is an xbox logo, because i like to play games on my xbox. My fourth item is a hotdog, because hot dogs are my favorite food. My fifth item is netflix, because netflix is such a good thing to watch if you want to waste time easily.

One thing that I put on my family crest is an elephant. Although they are my favorite animal, I chose an elephant because they are strong, and I like how smart they are. Elephants represent a lot of things. For example, they represent strength, wisdom,

A tattoo has different meanings and interpretations depending on the image created and whom it belongs to. It is a symbol where everyone sees and have different meanings to it. The outline of my tattoo is dirt for the foundation, the stem of a rose, and sunflower as the top flower. The important symbols that important to me now and in the future, are family, friends, a ball, sunflower, buildings and a book. These would be the symbols that I would be using if I were to have get a
