Note 1 — He-who-travels-behind-us (or Qonā′ts)

Reading edition

Łg̣ā′xet is a word applied to round stones lying on the beach. “Pebble” seems to be the nearest English equivalent, although the Haida word perhaps denotes a somewhat larger variety of stone. This town was once occupied by the Sea-otters, who sold it to another family, the Łg̣ā′xet-gu-lā′nas, and moved to a place east of Skidegate called Qꜝo′stᴀn-xana. More often the scene of the story is laid at this latter place. ↑
