ṬhuhúC (a type of ceremonial architecture)

ṬhuhúC refers to a type of ceremonial architecture traditionally used by certain Indigenous cultures in North America, particularly associated with the Tlingit and Haida peoples. These structures are often elaborate and serve significant cultural, spiritual, and social purposes, such as hosting ceremonies, gatherings, or storytelling events. Characterized by their distinctive wood carvings and totem poles, ṬhuhúC are not just buildings; they embody the history, beliefs, and artistry of the community, reflecting their identity and connection to the land.
