520 $a"On a late summer day, many years ago, a young man set out on voyage through the mountains. He never reached his destination. When his remains were discovered by three BC hunters, perhaps three hundred years after he left the northern coast and vanished into a storm, his name had faded from even the long memory of the coastal people. They decided to call him Kwädąy Dän Ts'ìnchį--the Long Ago Person Found. The discovery of the Kwädąy Dän Ts'ìnchį man raised many questions. Where had he come from? Where was he going, and for what purpose? What did his world look like? But his remains, preserved in glacial ice for centuries, offered answers, too--as did the traditional knowledge and experience of the Indigenous peoples in whose territories he lived and died. In this comprehensive and collaborative account, scientific analysis and cultural knowledge interweave to describe a life that ended almost precisely as Europeans began to arrive in the northwest. What emerges is not only a portrait of an individual and his world, but also a model for how diverse ways of knowing, in both scholarly and oral traditions, can complement each other to provide a new understanding of our complex histories."--$cProvided by publisher.
