Ganhada Amma Halaayt, Raven Frontlet

Ganhada Amma  Halaayt, Raven Frontlet

The frontlet represents the raven form of WIGET. In his beak is THE BOX OF DAYLIGHT, from which he releases the light for man. The design forms on the sides of his head are the wings. The abalone shell inlay signifies, that it was used by a royal person, a chief, during special events. On the bottom, you see a spirit, which is called THE THROAT OF RAVEN, in a form of his grandfather from whom he gets his voice and wisdom.
Alder, abalone shell.
