<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KikoBlueEyes, post: 3854697, member: 8363&quot;]Steve,</p><p>Wonderful information!&nbsp; Your detailed and sensitive discussion of the dynamics of this controversary is so valuable.&nbsp; I can appreciate how a people want to be called by the appropriate title.&nbsp; I cringe when I see the word &quot;Indian&quot; still so casually used for people who are not from the country of India. </p><p>I love the part about the chewing of salmon eggs as a fixative.&nbsp; That is a truly fascinating insight into what it took to create this art.&nbsp; I have so little appreciation of&nbsp; Northwest Coast Native art.&nbsp; In my travels, I have seen some things.&nbsp; Because I don&#039;t have any knowledge, my assumption is that what I see if just commercial tourist stuff.&nbsp; I did buy one of those wall hangings with commercial stain knowing full well that it was representational rather than the art that at the time was beyond my economic reach.&nbsp; </p><p>I really want to thank you for sharing your knowledge.&nbsp; I hope that other members who are interested will also find this post and benefit from your time and explanations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
