This is a fascinating site…I have a deep interest in totems from ALL cultures. Currently in Victoria, B.C. but I’m very glad I travelled here. Please feel free to visit and explore Ancient’s History, and to share anything of value you may find.

Not sure if this has already been posted, but if you are into Oceanic art the DeYoung in Golden Gate Park has a fairly extensive exhibit. Although I did hear there was some questions about how they obtained the artifacts. If the exhibit is still in swing, there are some interesting pieces from Papua New Guinea.
