Tribal Boundaries in the Nass Watershed

In this book, the Gitksan and Gitanyow present their response to the use of the treaty process by the Nisgaa to expand into Gitksan and Gitanyow territory on the upper Nass River and demonstrate the ownership of their territory according to their own legal system. They call upon the ancient oral history (adaawk) and their intimate knowledge of the territory and its geographical features to establish, before witnesses, their title to lands in the upper Nass watershed.
