"Eulachon" among the Kwakwaka'wakw

[David Lewis]

 Dear all, 
Yes but did Love and Goddard prove their point? I have read their essay and I don't believe they really have proven their point. Also, their theory does not really discredit the Byram and Lewis theory. In fact, the two theories may work in conjunction with each other in areas of Indigenous trade networks.
