About Spokane Valley, WA

For thousands of years, the Spokane Valley area was populated by members of the Upper Band of the Interior Salish Indians, calling themselves "Sn-tutuul-i", the meaning of which is not known. In about 1783, fur traders from the North West Company began traveling through the area. They called these Indians the "Spokanes" which has been interpreted as meaning "Children of the Sun." The Spokanes were a peaceful people, on friendly terms with neighboring tribes and later the fur traders and missionaries who came to the area. They fished salmon, hunted game, and ate camassia roots and berries they gathered. Despite their many years of acceptance of the white settlers, and the calming influence of Chief Garry (sometimes Spokan Garry), the Spokanes protested the loss of their lands by joining in the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
