Deer Rock

The Deer Rock, also called Peace Rock, is located on the right bank of the Chilkoot River in Southeast Alaska in the Haines Borough, Alaska of USA. In the language of the Raven Clan and Eagle Clan of the Tlingit Alaskan Indian tribes also known as the Chilkhat (Kukhwan) and the Chilkoot (Haines), the rock is called as the ''Gowakaan Teiyee'', and is of great significance to them as they held negotiations on this rock to arrive at a peaceful settlement of the tragic conflicts of the past. TlukwAxadi clan named the “rock” with the prefix “Deer”, as they believed that the Deer represented peace for now and always. A clan member who was chosen to mediate a settlement to end the conflict sat over this rock after truce in the battle between the clans, to think peacefully and to arrive at the most acceptable terms of settlement. Thereafter, with diplomatic finesse, in the presence of the Deer Rock, the warring clans settled their differences and since then no further conflicts have occurred between them. This Deer Rock was thus witness to peaceful settlement that saved countless members of the Raven and Eagle clans of the Tlingit tribe who would have otherwise died if the war had continued. Since then the Deer Rock has become a heritage monument of the Tlingit people.〔Deer Rock: A place of Peace: Official plaque at the Deer Rock on History of Deer Rock.〕
==History==

Chilkhat (Kukhwan)and Chilkoot (Haines) are two Indian Tilgit Alaskan clans who live in the Haines Burough of Alaska; Chilkoots live to the west of Haines and the Chilkats to the east. There was a big village at the southern end of Chilkat Lake and temporary camps scattered all the way from Chilkoot to Haines. There existed forts between the two on the Chilkat River. The two groups though separate geographically and psychologically have a common history. Free access of one community to that of the other existed and they greatly intermarried under Native law. However, at some time in the past, these two Tlingit communities were not in perfect harmony. In a battle that took place between the two ethnic groups, six people were killed from each group. The internecine fight ensued as a result of a Chilkoot cousin refusing the request of his Chilkat cousin for a “pack load of eulachon” and it flared up into a battle for “balance of honor.” In this battle, six people from each clan were killed. The clan leaders then decided to declare ceasefire to the conflict and then pursued for peace at the Deer Rock.〔
