Hamasaka in Tlu'wulahu Costume with Speaker's Staff - Qagyuhl
Here, the principal chief of the Qagyuhl appears dressed for Tlu-wulahu, a four-day ceremony attended by a visiting nation that involves dances and gift-giving. His regalia of a button-ornamented woolen blanket, cedar bark neck ring and headband, is coupled with a rattle and carved staff, the latter of which serves as an emblem of office and is always held while giving a speech.
