Nuu-chah-nulth

Vancouver Island’s outer coast, from the Brooks Peninsula southward to the northwest tip of Washington state, is the traditional territory of the Nuu-chah-nulth people. 

It is not known exactly when the ancestors of the Nuu-chah-nulth first arrived here to the west coast. he oldest carbon-dated village site is on an island in Barkley Sound, and indicates that people were living here at least 5,000 years ago.

Culturally, the Nuu-chah-nulth both were and are maritime people. They traditionally lived in longhouses in villages always situated on the water’s edge.
