Chinook Indian Plank House, Columbia River

Interior of a ceremonial lodge, Columbia River. Chinookan peoples include several groups of indigenous people of the Pacific Northwest. In the early 19th century, the Chinookan-speaking peoples resided along the Lower and Middle Columbia River from the river's gorge downstream to the river's mouth, and along adjacent portions of the coasts, from Tillamook Bay in the south, north to Willapa Bay. A plank house is a type of house constructed by indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest, typically using cedar planks. Paul Kane (September 3, 1810 - February 20, 1871) was an Irish-born Canadian painter famous for his paintings of First Nations peoples in the Canadian West and in the Columbia District.
