The Village Believers

 

 

Deep in the Pacific Northwest about 35 miles north of a city Bella Bella, there was a small village of the Dzunkwa tribe. It was a quiet little village where they acquired their own cultural traditions and beliefs. The village was made of a native kinship system where people were considered related by blood, by experience, by duel war exploits, and by adoption. The men of the village were great warriors protecting the women and the children of the village. The women were homemakers and they did all of the gardening to raised food. The Dzunkwa’s had one king ruler who gave direction and made the major decisions for the village. King Bukwas was in the prime of his life and he would challenge the young warriors to earn their rank in fighting duals in one’s honor, or to show honor to marry one of the villager’s daughter. Challenges would also be in one’s honor to see who was the strongest, which was the best hunter and the King would also give authority challenges to see how a warrior handled spontaneous decision-making. Once a warrior has proven his rank the head of a wolf was carved on the totem pole meaning he has earned his place in superiority. Each clan identified very strongly with crests and figures carved on their totem pole. The totem poles were established back in earlier times of their great ancestors who once lived with supernatural wolves and it was alleged that they would receive permission from the wolf to use them as a symbol for the village. The Dzunkwa tribe believed that wolves prefer to live amongst them in human form and when they were not watching they would transform back into wolf form returning to their own wild habitat.

 

Bukwus had a wife named Stiyana who was very beautiful, a very proud woman and also in her beliefs. Often she and the women would talk about the spirits of the village while working in the gardens. Bukwas and Stiyana had a son named Flukwa who was 13-years-old. Flukwa had a reputation for being a great whistler. Flukwa had heard of the many stories the people spoke about of the wolf’s metamorphosis and living among them but he didn’t believe any of the superstitions. He was quite bright and had his own intellectual beliefs.

 

One day Bukwus, his father proposed a challenge to two young warriors to go out and hunt. The one who brings back the biggest gain for the village would be rewarded. One of the young warriors was a friend of Flukwa’s whose name was Owkwa. The young warriors packed food and grabbed their hunting gear then set out to bring back great gain for the village. Owkwa saw Flukwa as he set out to hunt.

 

“Goodbye my friend, I shall return with great gain.”

 

“Owkwa, let me go with you for I would be very useful!” Flukwa pleaded.

 

Owkwa put his hands on Flukwa’s shoulder and smiled at him.

 

“Not this time my friend but someday soon, I promised.”

 

Flukwa watched as Owkwa disappeared into the forest.

 

He ran into his hut swiftly grabbing fruit and nuts placing them into his bag then reached for his bow and arrow he made out of hardwood and limbs. While trying to avoid being seen by anyone, he took off behind Owkwa into the forest.
