If you were going to carve a totem pole, what kind of faces would you put on it?

I'm carving a totem pole for my back yard. It's going to be about 12 feet tall and 1 foor thick, with 6 big faces on it. Looking for ideas for faces.

Totem- NOUN: 1a. An animal, plant, or natural object serving among certain tribal or traditional peoples as the emblem of a clan or family and sometimes revered as its founder, ancestor, or guardian. b. A representation of such an object.
Decide if you want to carve a 'traditional' native american totem pole, or if you want to make one that is representative of you and your family; or perhaps just a bunch of fun faces.
There are 7 traditional colors used by native indians, black, white, grey, brown, red, yellow, and verdi-gris.
