From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Haida are a tribe of Native Americans from the British Columbia area.
Ta'xet and Tia are death gods among the Haida. Ta'xet rules violent death, while Tia rules peaceful death.
Dzalarhons, a woman associated with frogs and volcanoes, and her husband, Kaiti (bear god), arrived at the homeland of the Haida from the Pacific Ocean along with six canoes full of people.
Gyhldeptis is a kindly forest goddess. Nankil'slas is the raven spirit. Lagua is an invisible spirit who helped the Haida discover the uses of iron. Shamans could speak with Lagua's voice by clenching their teeth. Sin ("day") is the sky god and chief deity.
