Does anyone know the name of this totem pole?

That's the Chief Johnson or Kadjuk pole, which was erected there in 1901 by Chief Johnson, head of the Kadjuk House of the local Raven clan. There used to be a community house behind it. The bird on top of the pole is the mythical Kadjuk bird, not an eagle as most people assume.
