Description
Summary:Detail of the middle section on a weathered totem pole. The figure resembles that of a human figure, with a circle around his head. The base figure has a large human face with a large labrette in the bottom lip. The reaminder of the pole is blank with a seated or crouching figure wearing a top hat at the top. The figure on top appears to have hollow eyes carved through to the back of the pole. It is not the same pole as the Proud Raven (Lincoln) Pole
