Experience the Huna Tribal House

Xunaa Shuká Hít (Huna Ancestors' House) is commonly referred to as the Huna Tribal House. Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve is the ancestral Homeland of the Huna Łingít clans who sustained themselves for centuries on the abundant resources of the land and sea. Although villages inside the Bay were overrun by the Little Ice Age glacial advance of the 1700's, the Huna Łingít re-established numerous fish camps and several villages in Glacier Bay soon after glacial retreat. The Huna Tribal House memorializes the clan houses that once lined the shores of present day Bartlett Cove, now the site of National Park Service headquarters in Glacier Bay.
