Willie Seaweed : ウィキペディア英語版 | Willie Seaweed Willie Seaweed (1873–1967) was a Kwakwaka'wakw wood carver from Canada. ==Early life== Kwakwaka'wakw carver Willie Seaweed was born in 1873 at Blunden Harbour, British Columbia, where he lived until his death in 1967. Both his parents came from chiefly lines and so as chief of the Nakwaktokw band, Seaweed was called Heyhlamas or Rights Maker. His informal name was Kwaghitola or Smoky Top. Seaweed was his official Canadian name, as First People had to have a legal name recognized by the government. Seaweed’s father was a Kwakwaka'wakw chief and died before he was born. Although contemporary practice was for Indian youth to attend a residential school, this was not followed in Seaweed's case; as a result, he maintained and spoke his Kwak'wala language during his entire lifetime. During his childhood, Seaweed apprenticed in carving with his half brother Johnny Davis.
