Sq’éwlets and Scowlitz: Fraser–Harrison community histories

Reviewed community and place names are preserved where supported; no otherwise unknown ancient self-designation is invented.

The SFU project presents a community biography spanning roughly three millennia, with ancient and recent history interpreted together. Ursus describes decades of community archaeology with Sq’éwlets and research partners, not archaeology replacing community knowledge.

River-confluence settlement and community interpretation Approximately 3000 years ago–1700 CE; later collaborative research separately dated Community-directed public history, excavation archives and collaborative digital curation Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada (orientation only): approximate public-town or distant institutional orientation, not an excavation, burial, sacred-site, private compound or vulnerable-deposit location; never a territorial, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, political, religious, sovereignty, fishing, farming, water-rights or route boundary. The orientation may be far from the archaeological context. No access, collecting or travel permission is implied.
Resumo

Casas costeiras, conexões fluviais e evidências

Conexões costeiras, insulares, estuarinas e fluviais

Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada is a modern orientation, not an ancient capital or boundary. Settlement and household evidence intersects living Sq’éwlets authority, not an ancient capital invented from a modern point.

Organização política e escala comunitária

Settlement and household evidence intersects living Sq’éwlets authority, not an ancient capital invented from a modern point. Community histories and archaeological inference must remain distinct without erasing living relationships; no restricted narratives or funerary details are reproduced.

Transformação posterior, património vivo e recepção moderna

Living communities and heritage institutions retain their own authority; this atlas cannot establish identity, ancestry, descent, recognition or membership. Stó:lō and Coast Salish are not interchangeable government, language and archaeological labels. Later colonial, research, reconstruction and stewardship events are dated separately from the main archaeological context.

Long community context The SFU project presents a community biography spanning roughly three millennia, with ancient and recent history interpreted together.

Sequência histórica

Uma cronologia breve e documentada

Estes marcos servem de orientação e não constituem uma história completa.

  1. Long local history

    The project frames an extended community history; this is not a claim that every phase had identical residence or administration.

    [S1]

  2. Community archaeology

    Research collaborations developed over time rather than beginning with an external discovery of an unknown people.

    [S2]

  3. Community-defined themes

    Leadership and Elders helped define public presentation and project relationships.

    [S3]

  4. Documented curation process

    The team published its collaborative method; public access is not blanket consent to reuse all knowledge.
