DZona - GU sits on a rounded natural stone base. The bronze sculpture is a skull of a buffalo, the horns are still intact. It is very well crafted by artist R. Barstan in 1991.

The Tsuut'ina Nation were once known as the Sarcee and many moons ago hunted the buffalo to survive in the Alberta prairies.

The reason I mention this there is reference to the Sarcee on the plaque, it is transcribed as follows:

Dzona - GU
