Sea Chief Blanket Robe
The sleek and powerful Orca is a symbol of protection, believed to watch over sea travelers and lead the way home at journey’s end. Orcas also represent family, as they mate for life, carefully tend their young and hunt in packs. Some First Nations people believe their strongest chiefs are reincarnated as powerful Orcas. They revere and protect these fearless hunters of the deep, also known as Sea Wolves, Killer Whales and Blackfish.
