Moricetown

Moricetown is a Wet'suwet'en village in Central British Columbia, Canada on the west side of the Bulkley River The current village was built during the early 1900s. Evidence of inhabitants date back to around 5,500 years ago.〔Albright, Sylvia. "Archaeological Evidence of Gitksan and Wet'suwet'en History (report), Hazelton, 1987.〕 The original name of the village was Witset. It was abandoned after a rockslide that prevented salmon from reaching the canyon. Witsuwit'en people then settled in Tsë Cakh (Hagwilget) and referred to the old village as Këyikh Wigit (often spelled Kyah Wiget).〔Morin, Mélanie H. Niwhts’ide’nï Hibi’it’ën: The Ways of Our Ancestors, School District #54 (Bulkley Valley)/Witsuwit’en Language Authority, Smithers, BC, 2011, p.85, 159.〕 It was renamed after the pioneer missionary Father Adrien-Gabriel Morice.
