In particular, accounts of their existence are first recorded among such cultures as the Haida, Tligit, Tsimshian and Nootka tribes. Among these, the Native Americans seem to attribute a certain connection between the Octopus-People, and the Raven People. For example, there is a myth about a man from the Raven tribe happened upon an Octopus-tribe woman with eight long braids of hair, who was using a stick to prod the shore of the beach. The Raven inquired of her: "Octopus, are you digging for clams?". At first, the Octopus woman ignored him, but after the fourth time asking, she was fed up with his annoyance. Her hair turned back to tentacles, and she grabbed hold of the Raven. To spite him, Octopus answered him, "Yes. I am digging for clams. These are clams. And I am digging them." By then, the tide had begun to draw nearer. As the water rose higher and higher, Raven answered politely, yet nervously, "You have answered my question, Octopus. Thank you. Now, please, let me go". Despite his struggling, Octopus held Raven fast, until the water grew higher and higher, and at last, Octopus left Raven for drowned. Raven's people, having watched the whole ordeal from afar, did nothing, as they knew his nature as a trickster. The next day, he was back (having easily returned from the dead), but from then on, he never asked another question of Octopus again. Project include suporrted and unsupported 75mm miniature.
