Tulalip

Tulalip

Tulalip is a group of Native American peoples from western Washington state in the United States. The Tulalip people settled onto reservation lands after signing the Point Elliott Treaty with the former Washington Territory on January 22, 1855. The reservation is the western half of the Marysville Tulalip community. Marysville is an incorporated city and lies east of Interstate 5. Tulalip is a reservation and it lies west of Interstate 5. The Marysville School District serves both the reservation and the city.

The reservation has Quil Ceda Village as a business park and municipality to provide jobs and tax income for the reservation. Situated alongside Interstate 5, it is home to the massive $72 million Tulalip Casino, a popular 100-store outlet mall and will be home to a 400-room resort due to open in 2008 [http://www.heraldnet.com/stories/07/02/22/100loc_b8tulaliphotel001.cfm] .

The modern Tulalip is a mixture of several older indigenous peoples: the Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Skagit, Sauk-Suiattle, Samish and Stillaguamish; all these groups spoke a Salishan language called Lushootseed ( dxwləšúcid ); the Lushootseed spelling of "Tulalip" is "dxwlilap". Like many Northwest Coast natives, the Tulalip relied on fishing from local rivers for food and built plank houses (longhouses) to protect themselves from the harsh, wet winters west of the Cascade Mountains.
