Yes, with qualifications: Totem poles aren't originally native to the Seminoles -- they're from the Pacific Northwest. However, during the age of Seminole tourist camps (from the 1920s through the 1960s) the ever-enterprising Seminoles realized that white tourists expected all Native Americans to have totem poles. So they started carving them then. Therefore, yes, they did carve totems, but not for the same reasons as the original totem pole carving tribes. For the Seminoles, they were just tourist signage. Some Seminole totem pole examples from old tourist camps now reside in the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum, on the Big Cypress Seminole Reservation.
