Ms. Que BanhLearn more about #ChiefMaquinna.
This is a collection of words, photos and video clips for Hyas Tyee #Nuuchahnulth - Chief Maquinna. A greatly respected & important Chief of the Nuuchahnulth #Haida People, of the Haida Gwaii Islands, in #BritishColumbia #Canada.
Chief Maquinna (also transliterated: Muquinna, Macuina, Maquilla) was the Chief of the Nuuchahnulth People of #NootkaSound, during the heyday of the maritime fur trade in the 1780s and 1790s, on the #PacificNorthwest Coast.
British explorer #CaptainCook went looking (like so many #Europeans before and after him)or the Northwest Passage. He ran headlong into a thriving trade and business culture on the west coast, overseen by young Nuu-chah-nulth, Chief Maquinna.
The two men's encounter would forever change trans-Pacific trade and teach the European empire a lesson in diplomacy, they've managed to forget, many times over.

Nancy Marguerite AndersonTHE HBC BRIGADES, 1826:
When the outgoing Brigades reach their destination of Fort #Vancouver #WA, they are half way through their journey. However in this part of the world the rivers they travelled flowed from north to south, and so the return journey was always slower and more difficult. Never mind: they had a good time at their Pacific coast headquarters. #PNW #PNWHistory #WAHistory #HistoricJourney #HBCHistory https://nancymargueriteanderson.com/fort-vancouver/

YORK FACTORY EXPRESS JOURNAL, 1847:
"Reached the Cascades in time for breakfast. Found about 70 waggons of American Immigrants there. It was sundown before we got the pieces across and the boats past. Pushed off from the lower end of the Portage in the evening and put ashore for supper some distance below. Carried on in the night time and with the help of a favourable breeze of wind, reached the Saw Mill a little after midnight.
"Saturday. Raining the whole day. #WAHistory #PNWHistory #Books

"Remained windbound until the afternoon when we started under sail and encamped a little above John Days River. Clear weather.
"26th. Had a sail wind all day, but lost a great deal of time at a Rapid below Point Yes, where Joe broke his boat and it nearly filled. Had to get it repaired, and both of the boats gummed, so that it was nearly noon before we were ready to start. Made a good distance before encamping. #PNWHistory #PNW #WAHistory #HistoricJourney
