Taking the Trail Home: Settlement Patterns of the K'enaht'ana Dena'ina… and Forgotten Knowledge

Author(s): Daniel E. Stone

Year: 2008

Summary

In 2006, the Native Village of Eklutana, a federally recognized Tribe, acquired a National Park Service Historical Preservation Grant to seek out those physical landscapes along the periphery of Nuti (Knife Arm), from Point Woronzof up to the Knik River and back down to Point Mackenzie, that have a Dena'ina name. If it has a Dena'ina name the Dena'ina were there and used that land. Secondly, landscapes having a high potential for Dena'ina cultural resources would be investigated. Well over 100 landscapes were visited resulting in a substantial quantity of Alaska Historic Resource Survey listings. This report includes a tour of lands inhabited by the K'enaht'ana along the coast of Nuti.
