Description

This educational pamphlet details inter-twined ways of life for "Seven Indian groups" during the four seasons. The Skokomish, Squaxin, Nisqually, Steilacoom, Puyallup, Cowlitz, and Chehalis tribes socialized, intermarried, and traded with each other. “While each tribal group had its own link to it's past, here in this land of rainy winters and warm summers, they formed a bond between them, as each exercised stewardship over the lands of the river basons they occupied.”

Context

This educational pamphlet was included in an exhibit put on by The Washington State Capital Museum titled "Traditions and Transitions: American Indians of Southern Puget Sound Exhibition"
