I think what you are referring to is the Native Totem pole. The Inuit did not traditionally carve totem poles. The Inuit lived in the high Arctic, above the tree line, and would not have had the materials to do such a thing. The furthest north you would find a tribe who did carve totem would be some of the Athabaskan tribes of southern Alaska.
