The Kwakiutl lived in the Northwest Coast of British Columbia, Canada, where they experienced hot summers and mild winters. They lived in large multi-story longhouses made of beams that could house extended families. As hunters and farmers, the Kwakiutl's diet consisted of fish, deer, moose, shellfish, seaweed, berries, roots, and rabbits. They made their clothing from cedar bark and fur robes and used tools like spoons, combs, and ladles. The Kwakiutl had religious beliefs that included gods and spoke the English language. In their arts and crafts, they made bowls, baskets, blankets, and masks.
