The Yup’ik people (plural Yupiit) are a group of Indigenous peoples native to western, southwestern, and south-central Alaska, as well as parts of the Russian Far East. Derived from the words yuk ("person") and pik ("real"), the name translates to the "real people". They form the largest single Alaska Native group.
A traditional Yup'ik carved wooden dance or shaman's mask from Southwestern Alaska, featuring characteristic attached limb-like appendages and dual-pigment coloring.
Often incorporates symbolic appendages (such as arms, legs, or feathers) representing spirits (Yua) or transformation narratives in ceremonial dances.
Traditionally carved from local woods like spruce or cottonwood and finished with natural pigments.

Malanggan carved wood mask from the complex system of traditional culture, religious rituals, and intricate wood carvings from the New Ireland province in Papua New Guinea.
The people who create and practice Malanggan traditions belong to various distinct language groups and indigenous communities living in northern and northwestern New Ireland (such as the Tigak, Nalik, Madak, and Kara groups). Malanggan (also spelled malagan or malangan) describes the elaborate mortuary ceremonies, sacred masks, and sculptures used to honor the dead and affirm clan identity.
Rituals are held months or years after a person dies to honor and dismiss the spirit.
These events are large community festivals filled with feasting, dancing, and music rather than private grief.
The ceremonies affirm clan identity, pass down land rights, and combine with the initiation of young people.
