Sedna, a beautiful Inuit
girl, became, and still is today, the goddess of the sea. Sedna's
companions are the fish, seals and whales that sit with her
at the bottom on the ocean. Her anger and fury against man is
what drums up the violent seas and storms. Hunters have a great
respect for her. Legend has it that Shaman's from the world
above must swim down to her to comb her long black tangled hair
in order to calm her down so that she does not release her fury.
