The Warriors’ Code

The five elements of the warriors’ code translated from Lingít by George Ramos of the Raven L’uknax.ádi clan:

  • Never make yourself “heavier” than others
  • Be humble before your people
  • Reach for the hand of your fellow man and pick him up
  • Always protect your people
  • Fight to the last breath
