Creek Woman

Haida · deity · mythic primordial · deity

Female; deity-class founding ancestress of the Eagle moiety and matron of fresh water and salmon. The prompt's 'Property Woman/Djila'qons' conflates two distinct figures: Property Woman (a forest wealth-spirit also known among the Tlingit) is separate from Djila'qons the Eagle ancestress; this entry covers Djila'qons. Portrait masks of Dzila'qons are a recognized Haida regalia subject.
