Members of the Taku River Tlingit First Nation will pick up at the Whitehorse Airport today a traditional robe the First Nation paid more than $45,000 to reclaim, APTN has reported. The robe is woven in the traditional Chilkat design. It includes two wolves, two ravens, and a child matches the work of noted weaver Mary Hunt, from the Yanwulihashi Hit (Drifted Ashore Clan) of the T’aaku Kwáan people. The robe, thought to be from 1830 or 1840, was rescued from a Toronto auction house. Photo credit: APTN
