Needs sources

[edit]

There was an unsourced claim that George Hunt carved one or more totem poles at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, and that one was donated to the city by James Kraft and installed in a lakefront park. A source on Kraft and the sculpture notes it was donated in 1929. It says that Tony Hunt carved the replacement but says nothing about the original being carved by George Hunt, who was best known as an ethnologist. No carving should be asserted without a solid source.Parkwells (talk) 00:07, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

[edit]

I propose to merge Quesalid into George Hunt (ethnologist). As discussed in Harry Whitehead's article "The Hunt for Quesalid"(Anthropology & Medicine 7, 2000, 149-168), Quesalid was the name used by George Hunt/Maxulagilis as a shaman. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.251.141.76 (talk) 12:49, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
