==History==
When the Kwikwasut'inux village of Gwayasdums was destroyed in the 1850s by the Nuxalk, the survivors joined the Mamalilikulla at Memkumlis. The village was partly destroyed by fire in 1892 and rebuilt.〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Memkoomlish" )〕
The village's population was estimated at about 2000 in 1836-41 (before the Kwikwasut'inux moved there), but by 1911 it was only 90.〔Franz Boaz, American Geographical Society, vol XIX, no.3, 1887, reprinted in ''Handbook of the Indians of Canada'', 1913, quoted in (BC Names/GeoBC entry "Mamalilaculla (locality)" )〕
