The routes of precontact inland trails are no longer known well due to the decimation of the local population in the 18th and 19th centuries. Industrial logging is threatening to destroy archaeological evidence of the inland trail network, and therefore this inquiry is timely. The largest and most topographically diverse island, Graham, has been the subject of many archaeological impact assessments that have documented hundreds of archaeological sites, most of them containing culturally modified trees.

    Community Involvement in the Nomination and Management of SGang Gwaay World Heritage Site Jennifer Iredale and Ursula Pfahler Heritage Branch Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Province of British Columbia Edited by Clare Thorbes GLOSSARY In keeping with the wishes of the Haida community, this case study uses Haida place names that are in current use, and the spellings follow the most recent orthography established by the Haida Language Committee. The English names for certain places are listed in this glossary and occasionally mentioned elsewhere in the case study to orient readers more familiar with those names. Many of our interviewees use their Haida name, either exclusively or in addition to their English name, and we have endeavoured to use the order and spelling of names that our interviewees prefer. People’s names are listed once in the glossary and are not cross-referenced. In the case of individuals who use their English names predominantly, the given name precedes the surname.
