[edit] Skwxwu7mesh History
Deadman's Island is skwtsa7s. Translates to "island". Coal Habour/Lost Lagoon is ch'elxwa'7elch. Translates to "gets dry at times". Lumberman's Arch is xway'xway (the "x"'s here and underlined). Translates to "Mask Place". I'll see what other history I can find up. I'm now making a list of things to ask, research about relates to Skwxwu7mesh history in relation to Great Vancouver, North Shore, and Howe Sound. It's pretty interesting how teaching can lead to learning. OldManRivers 18:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
- I added it to the text. Yup, the difference between teaching and learning isn't all that great. Bobanny 19:20, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
