| Commentaires : | Basket traded in area between Nanaimo and Jervis Inlet (collector's notes). There are only a few islands in this area to which this information may refer. They are: Thormanby islands, Lasqueti Island, Texada Island, Nelson Island and Hardy Island. A map showing village sites of the Northern Coast Salish in the Handbook of North American Indians, shows that the smaller Thormanby island had a village site that was known as sxwelap 'deep furrow'. Village sites are not indicated for the other islands previously mentioned (see Kennedy and Bouchard 1990:442-3). |
