Hi Nicolas,

I am guessing that the languages will be in Alaska Native languages
primarily, perhaps with some alternative translations in English.

My guess is that there will be a mix of oral stories with stories that are
represented in images like totem poles
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totem_pole>.

Would you have some time on Sunday when we could meet? I can message you
off-list to set up a time.

Pine
