Where do you find totem poles?

Totem poles are typically found in the Pacific Northwest region of North America, particularly among Indigenous peoples such as the Haida, Tlingit, and Coast Salish. They are often located in areas with rich Indigenous cultural heritage, such as British Columbia in Canada and Alaska in the United States. Totem poles are traditionally placed in front of homes or important community buildings as symbols of family lineage, clan ownership, or cultural significance.
