#Stolo aka #Staulo, #Stalo or #Stahlo & commonly referred to in #ethnographic literature as #FraserRiverIndians or #LowerFraserSalish, are a group of First Nations peoples inhabiting the #FraserValley & lower #FraserCanyon of #BritishColumbia, #Canada, part of the grouping of #CoastSalish nations. Stó꞉lō is the #Halqemeylem word for "river", so the Stó꞉lō are the #RiverPeople.
