Since the Time of the Transformers: The Ancient Heritage of the Nuu-chah-nulth, Ditidaht, and Makah (Pacific Rim Archaeology) - Softcover
The Makah, Nuu-chah-nulth, and Ditidaht are closely related peoples who occupy the northern tip of the Olympic Peninsula and western Vancouver Island. In this compelling and comprehensive history of the area, Alan McMillan integrates all available sources of information into a single account, tracing the heritage of these peoples from the earliest archaeological evidence over 4,000 years ago to today’s communities.
Using recent data from the Toquaht Archaeological Project in Barkley Sound combined with historical evidence and oral traditions, McMillan demonstrates conclusively that there were extensive cultural changes and restructuring in these societies following contact with Europeans. Since the Time of the Transformers brings together over 100 years of research and will be of immense value to anyone interested in the culture history of this region.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book examines over 4000 years of culture history of the related Nuu-chah-nulth, Ditidaht, and Makah peoples on western Vancouver Island and the Olympic Peninsula. Using data from the Toquaht Archaeological Project, McMillan challenges current ethnographic interpretations that show little or no change in these peoples culture. Instead, by combining historical evidence, recent archaeological data, and oral traditions he demonstrates conclusively that there were in fact extensive cultural changes and restructuring in these societies in the century following contact with Europeans.McMillan brings the reader up to modern times, identifying the major issues that face the Nuu-chah-nulth, Ditidaht, and Makah communities today. This book examines over 4000 years of culture history of the related Nuu-chah-nulth, Ditidaht, and Makah peoples on western Vancouver Island and the Olympic Peninsula.
