The archaeology program takes a broad range and multi-disciplinary approach to archaeological research and management.
In addition to archaeological sites, we recognize a full range of cultural heritage sites important to the Stó:lō community, including Transformation Sites, various Place Names and Spirited Places as defined in the Stó:lō Heritage Policy.
Through our program we actively help regulate archaeological work in the Stó:lō Territory. At the same time, we actively participate in all aspects of archaeology from research to resource management, collections curation to repatriation, interpretation to public involvement and cross-cultural awareness – both on reserve and off. |
Our staff - trained, equipped and with access to our in-house GIS system, databases and technicians - regularly conduct development-related assessments within Stó:lō Territory. In the last four years we have conducted over forty-five archaeological assessments, identifying and developing management plans for the respectful treatment of numerous cultural sites in the process.
