Book excerpt: Excerpt from Summary Prehistory and Ethnography of Olympic National Park, Washington This report is a synthesis of available environmental, archeological, and anthropological literature augmented by a limited amount of fieldwork conducted in and around Olympic National Park, Washington. These research efforts were undertaken during the summer of 1982, when I was the archeologist on a research team which also included historians and architectural historians. I examined a number of published and unpublished documents pertinent to the Olympic Peninsula in particular and the Pacific Northwest in general, interviewed Park employees and other Peninsula residents, and also conducted archeological reconnaissance in the Park. I will present first a general review of the environmental setting at Olympic, which will help place the subsequent sections into a physical context. Then I will discuss earlier archeological research conducted in and around the Park. For a number of reasons, actual archeological research in the Park has been limited, but investigations elsewhere on the Peninsula and in the greater Northwest have provided enough data to construct at least the broad outline of prehistory. A large portion of the prehistory of the Park as presented in this report is highly speculative, since research at sites more than 3000 years old has been very limited. Therefore, this prehistory is not etched in stone, but rather is a series of suggested trends which parallel cultural developments noted for other more well-studied regions in the Northwest. How those presumed trends are actually represented in the archeological record of the Olympic Peninsula awaits further testing and research. The last two sections of this report outline Northwest Coast aboriginal culture in general terms and then present specific details about the several Native American groups who lived in and around present-day Olympic National Park. Because those native cultures shared certain important similarities, I have included a general cultural overview to avoid redundancy in the report. Also, since many non-anthropologists are unfamiliar with Northwest Coast Indian culture, I felt this would be a good opportunity to present the basics. Perhaps the very best way to describe native culture would be to prepare and present detailed ethnohistories of each group, but such an effort was far beyond the scope and means of this project.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many national parks and monuments tell unique stories of the struggle between the rights of native peoples and the wants of the dominant society. These stories involve our greatest parks—Yosemite, Yellowstone, Mesa Verde, Glacier, the Grand Canyon, Olympic, Everglades—as well as less celebrated parks elsewhere. In American Indians and National Parks, authors Robert Keller and Michael Turek relate these untold tales of conflict and collaboration. American Indians and National Parks details specific relationships between native peoples and national parks, including land claims, hunting rights, craft sales, cultural interpretation, sacred sites, disposition of cultural artifacts, entrance fees, dams, tourism promotion, water rights, and assistance to tribal parks. Beginning with a historical account of Yosemite and Yellowstone, American Indians and National Parks reveals how the creation of the two oldest parks affected native peoples and set a pattern for the century to follow. Keller and Turek examine the evolution of federal policies toward land preservation and explore provocative issues surrounding park/Indian relations. When has the National Park Service changed its policies and attitudes toward Indian tribes, and why? How have environmental organizations reacted when native demands, such as those of the Havasupai over land claims in the Grand Canyon, seem to threaten a national park? How has the Park Service dealt with native claims to hunting and fishing rights in Glacier, Olympic, and the Everglades? While investigating such questions, the authors traveled extensively in national parks and conducted over 200 interviews with Native Americans, environmentalists, park rangers, and politicians. They meticulously researched materials in archives and libraries, assembling a rich collection of case studies ranging from the 19th century to the present. In American Indians and National Parks, Keller and Turek tackle a significant and complicated subject for the first time, presenting a balanced and detailed account of the Native-American/national-park drama. This book will prove to be an invaluable resource for policymakers, conservationists, historians, park visitors, and others who are concerned about preserving both cultural and natural resources.
