What is the Redistributive feast of the Pacific Northwest Coast called?

The Redistributive feast of the Pacific Northwest Coast is called the "potlatch." It is a ceremonial event among Indigenous peoples, particularly among the Coast Salish and other tribes, where hosts give away or destroy valuable items to demonstrate wealth, strengthen social ties, and reinforce status within the community. Potlatches are significant cultural and social gatherings that also serve to mark important life events.


Northwest coast climate?

Short answer: wet. Long answer: The northwest coast region is largely confined between the Pacific ocean and the mountains of the interior; much of this area is covered with Pacific temperate rainforest that includes giant redwoods, cedar and lowland oak. Lichens and Spanish moss thrive and give the trees a weird, spooky appearance. Rainfall is much higher than in most other regions - in western Oregon the average annual rainfall is close to 200 inches.
