The neighborhood, wedged between the busy corridors of Interstate 5 and Aurora Avenue, takes its name from ''Liq'tid'' (''LEEK-teed'') or Licton, the Lushootseed (Whulshootseed) Coast Salish word for the reddish mud of the springs—. The ''Dkhw’Duw’Absh'', People of the Inside and ''Xacuabš'', People of the Large Lake, Lushootseed (Skagit-Nisqually) Coast Salish native people had used the springs area as a spiritual health spa since the area was populated after the last glacial period (c. 8,000 BCE—10,000 years ago). In the 1850s, the ''Dkhw’Duw’Absh'' and ''Xacuabš'' became the Duwamish tribe of today. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Licton Springs, Seattle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
