Memorial Pole Stolen From Canadian First Nation to Return Home From Scottish Museum
Memorial Pole Stolen From Canadian First Nation People Set to Return Home From a Scottish Museum
A memorial pole which was allegedly stolen from a Canadian First Nation people nearly a century ago and put on display in the National Museum Of Scotland in Edinburgh is being prepared for the long journey back to its place of origin. BBC 30 AUG 2023 The House Of Ni'isjoohl memorial pole arrived in Scotland in 1929 after standing on the banks of the Nass River in Ank'idaa village for around 70 years - but is now on the brink of a 4,200-mile journey home. The 37ft tall wooden artefact has been a popular feature at the National Museum Of Scotland in Edinburgh for much of the last century and was the focus of a special ceremony on Monday ahead of final preparations for its return to Canada. Museum officials agreed at the end of last year it should be returned to the indigenous Nisga'a Nation in what is now British Columbia. Sim'oogit Ni'isjoohl, who also goes by the name of Chief Earl Stephens, said: "In Nisga'a culture, we believe that this pole is alive with the spirit of our ancestors. "After nearly 100 years, we are finally able to bring our dear relative home to rest on Nisga'a lands. "It means so much for us to have the Ni'isjoohl memorial pole returned to us, so that we can connect our family, nation and our future generations with our living history."
