Excerpt from Proceedings of the California Academy of Sciences, Vol. 7
The field work on which this paper is based was carried on as time would permit while the writer had charge of the Lummi Indians in 1905 and the Quillayute and Hoh Indians in 1905 to 1909.
Western Washington and adjacent British territory, as here considered, embrace the Olympic Peninsula, the shores and islands of Puget Sound and Georgian Bay and that part of British Columbia lying northward from the International Boundary Line to the Fraser valley and delta. In general it is a most difficult region in which to do research work of any kind; for away from the trails and roads the fallen timber, underbrush and ferns make the forest such a jungle in most places.
For convenience, the archaeology of the region will be considered under three general headings, viz.: The Arch?ology of the Olympic Peninsula, The Arch?ology of the Lummi-Nooksack country, and The Arch?ological material in adjacent British territory.
In submitting this paper the writer wishes to thank Messrs. Barton W. Evermann and E. W. Gifford of the California Academy of Sciences, Harlan I. Smith of the Canadian Geological Survey, F. W. Hodge of the Bureau of American Ethnology and Charles W. Smith, Assistant Librarian of the University of Washington, for their kind aid in helping him with the bibliography. The arch?ological references given below were furnished by Mr. Charles W. Smith.
