Skokomish people
The Skokomish (pronounced ) are one of nine tribes of the Twana, a Native American people of western Washington state in the United States. The tribe lives along Hood Canal, a fjord-like inlet on the west side of the Kitsap Peninsula and the Puget Sound basin. Historically the Twana were hunters, fishers, and gatherers who had a nomadic lifestyle during the warmer months, while living in more permanent homes during the winter months.
Today, Skokomish people are enrolled in the federally recognized Skokomish Indian Tribe.
Like many Northwest Coast indigenous peoples, the Skokomish rely heavily on fishing for their survival.
==Name==
The name "Skokomish" comes from the Twana ''sqʷuqʷóbəš'', also spelled ''sqWuqWu'b3sH'', and meaning "river people" or "people of the river". 〔http://hood.hctc.com/~skok1/ The Skokomish Tribal Nation〕 The Skokomish were one of the largest of the nine different Twana village communities that existed before about 1860. By their locations, the nine groups were the Dabop, Quilcene ("salt-water people"), Dosewallips, Duckabush, Hoodsport, Skokomish (Skoko'bsh), Vance Creek, Tahuya, and Duhlelap (Tule'lalap) communities.〔 See also map on (page 2 )〕 Within these nine communities there were at least 33 settlements.
