FAQ
the Duwamish Tribe?
The Duwamish Tribe are the Indigenous people whose ancestral homeland includes what is now Seattle and much of central King County, Washington. In 1855, the Duwamish, led by Chief Seattle and Duwamish subchiefs, were principal signatories to the Treaty of Point Elliott, alongside the Suquamish. We call ourselves dəw̓abš (translated as "People of the Inside") and are part of the larger Coast Salish cultural and linguistic family. We have lived in the region since time immemorial, with villages along the Duwamish, Black, and Cedar Rivers, Elliott Bay, Lake Washington, and surrounding waterways.
