History of the Duwamish tribe The region now known as Seattle has been inhabited since the end of the last glacial period (c. 8,000 BCE.: 10,000 years ago). Archaeological excavations at West Point in Discovery Park, Magnolia confirm that the Seattle area has been inhabited by humans for at least 4,000 years and probably much longer. West Point was called "Oka-dz-elt-cu", "Per-co-dus-chule", or "Pka-dzEltcu". The village of "tohl-AHL-too" ("herring house") had been inhabited at least since the 6th century CE, as had "hah-AH-poos"—"where there are horse clams"—at the then-mouth of the Duwamish River in what is now the Industrial District. The Lushootseed (Skagit-Nisqually)-speaking Salish "Dkh'Duw'Absh" ("People of the Inside") and "Xacuabš" ("People of the Large Lake")—ancestors of today's Duwamish Tribe—occupied at least 17 villages in the mid-1850s and lived in some 93 permanent longhouses ("khwaac'ál'al") along the lower Duwamish River, Elliott Bay, Salmon Bay, Portage Bay, Lake Washington, Lake Sammamish, and the Duwamish River tributaries, the Black and Cedar Rivers.
