Recently I received an email with photographs of the totem pole located at Byward Market, Ottawa, Canada. Close to the top of the pole is a symbol identical to the faravahar / farohar symbol. The pole, I understand, was hand carved by artists belonging to the indigenous First nations people of Canada as the natives are called. Each figure on a totem pole is supposed to represents a symbol which the Native people believe are very meaningful to their culture and traditions. Totem pole carvings have been handed down through generations to preserve the history and honours the First Nations people. If that be the case, is it not intriguing that an identical symbol exists in their culture? If so, how and why did they decide on it and what is its significance? I do hope some scholar spots this entry and decides to investigate. As a layman, I too am trying in my clumsy way to get to the bottom of it all. Maybe neither Columbus nor the Vikings discovered The Americas. Maybe we got there first!!

Good information to learn. Some of us just wear it without knowing what it means.
