Laxyuup Gitxaala – research trips 2011
Aug 14th, 2011 by cmenzies
Since 2009 a joint UBC/Gitxaala research team has been documenting ancient Gitxaala villages and resource harvesting sites. We have ranged from K’modah (Lowe Inlet) to Campania Island to Banks Island and within Kitkatla Inlet. We have identified half a dozen villages not previously recorded in the provincial database.
This final trip of the 2011 reserach season is a bit different – this time our focus on intertidal modifications linked to fish traps.
We’ll be traveling on-board the MV Northern Monarch to the west coast of Banks Island.
