Detailed explanation-1: -The Northwest Coast was densely populated when Europeans first made landfall in the 1700s. It was home to peoples speaking Athabaskan, Tshimshianic, Salishan, and other languages. Well-known tribes included the Tlingit, Haida, Tsimshian, Kwakiutl, Bella Coola, Nuu-chah-nulth (Nootka), Coast Salish, and Chinook.
Detailed explanation-2: -Learn more about the Chinook people, who traditionally lived in what are now Washington and Oregon, from the mouth of the Columbia River to The Dalles.
Detailed explanation-3: -The First Nations people of the Northwest Coast have a very rich tradition of hats, cloaks, body armour, and masks. Before Europeans arrived and introduced cloth, most coastal people wore minimal clothing. Men went naked when weather permitted and women would wear a simple skirt made of shredded cedar fibre.
