"In addition to such distinctive icons as the totem pole, the Chilkat blanket, and the dance
mask, one of the most characteristic artifacts of Northwest Coast cultures is the Copper, the large
decorated shield-shaped copper plate displayed or given away at potlatches. These artifacts are
perhaps the pinnacle of a long history of metal working in the region, a history this paper shall
explore, covering where the copper came from, how it was worked, and what products it was
turned into; it shall also explore other metals utilized by natives in the region, such as iron, in
both the pre- and post-contact eras. Finally, at the end of the paper, we shall discuss some of the
social and spiritual dimensions of metalworking on the Northwest Coast."
