It is important to know and understand our region and what it means to the Salish peoples. We will learn the traditional names of places in our valley as they were known for hundreds of years before the non-indians arrived and renamed these areas. We will explore and study the importance of each area. Explore the maps in the links. All resources are added below. We will use the books, The Salish People and Flathead Place Names.
