Ancient Evidence: First Peoples And The Management And Use Of Salish Sea Marine Resources
Show Notes

For thousands of years, indigenous peoples have called the Salish Sea home. An important part of living here was sustainably managing and using the resources the waters provided. On this episode, we are honored to have Dr. Anne Salomon, a professor at Simon Fraser University, with us to talk about these ancient management practices in regards to traditionally important resources, like sea otters, clams, and salmon. Not only will we learn about the historical and cultural relevance of these resources to First Nations in Canada, but also how evidence is uncovered to learn about the ancient past.
