Who they are
The Gitxsan are an Indigenous people originally from northwestern British Columbia in Canada, whose traditional name means people of the river of mist. They have a strong historical connection to the Skeena and Nass river basins, preserving a rich system of matrilineal clans and a profound artistic heritage expressed through totem poles and oral traditions.
