Telegraph Creek, British Columbia : ウィキペディア英語版
Telegraph Creek
Telegraph Creek is a small community located off Highway 37 in Northern British Columbia at the confluence of the Stikine River and Telegraph Creek. The only permanent settlement on the Stikine River, it is home to approximately 250 members of Tahltan First Nation and non-native residents. The town offers basic services, including Anglican and Catholic churches, a general store, a post office, a clinic with several nurses on-call around the clock, two Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers, and a k-9 school. Steep river banks and rocky gorges form the terraced nature of the geography.
The community includes Telegraph Creek Indian Reserve No. 6, Telegraph Creek Indian Reserve No. 6A, and Guhthe Tah Indian Reserve No. 11〔(BCGNIS entry "Guhthe Tah Indian Reserve 12" )〕 which are under the governance of the Tahltan First Nation of Telegraph Creek. Stikine Indian Reserve No. 7, which is one mile west (downstream) and on the opposite side of the Stikine River, is under the governance of the Iskut First Nation of the settlement of Iskut, which is on the river of the same name. The two bands together comprise the Tahltan Nation.
Tahltan (or Nahanni) refers to a Northern Athabaskan people that live around Telegraph Creek, Dease Lake and Iskut.
==History==
The Stikine region is the traditional home of the Tahltan people, who have lived there for generations. The modern history of the Telegraph Creek and Dease Lake area dates back to the 1860s and 1870s with the Stikine and Cassiar Gold Rushes. Telegraph Creek witnessed the discovery of gold by prospectors on the Stikine River in the 1860s and was the head of navigation. In 1866, the construction of an overland telegraph line to Yukon gave Telegraph Creek its name.
As early as 10,000 years ago, the Tahltan people used obsidian from the Mount Edziza volcanic complex to make tools and weapons for trading material. This is the main source of obsidian found in northwestern British Columbia.〔(Journey & Transformations: British Columbia Landscapes ) Retrieved on 2007-10-13〕〔(Catalogue of Canadian volcanoes - Stikine Volcanic Belt: Mount Edziza ) Retrieved on 2007-10-13〕
Author Edward Hoagland wrote extensively about Telegraph Creek in his 1969 book ''Notes from the Century Before: A Journal from British Columbia'' in which he reveals the presence of a high level of ghost activities.
