A village in British Columbia, Canada

Examples

“"Cloolthpich on the west shore of Meares Island, was the traditional winter village of the Kelsemaht. When the Kelsemaht had finished smoking and drying their salmon at Oinimitis, Qwatswe and otherfishing villages and camps, they moved to Cloolthpich in the late fall or early winter, and stayed there until just before the herring run in early spring, when they moved to their summer village of Yahksis on the east Coast of Vargas Island. The residents of Cloolthpich also caught rockfish, hunted harbor seals, ducks and loons. I remember a row of at least live large houses at Cloolthpich when I stayed there in the winters before 1920 with my grandfather Matlamatla, and my great-uncle Charlie Jack." Owomyis (Peter Webster) Ahousat Elder In his affidavit statement for the Meares Island court case.”
