1. According to the Haida myth, it is possible to realize that they lived in a warm region, which meant that they could dress in lighter and fresher fabrics, in addition to allowing them to wear few clothes. Usually the clothes were made of cedar wood and leather, however in rainy moments it was common for them to use wool.

2. The Haidas lived on an island. However, this island was part of the cumin made by some traders who were going through trade routes. This allowed the Haida to have a certain contact with other human beings, even if not a direct contact. It is possible, even, that this island had other tribes, with which the Haida could interact.

3. These types of interactions made the Haida see themselves as a single people and this sense of belonging stimulated not only a sense of community, but also a cultural sense and traditions.

4. The Haidas were excellent navigators, which gave them many advantages in trade, wars and other elements that had navigation as a factor of relevance.
