51 Gitxsan appellants represented all but 12 of the Gitxsan Houses during the Delgamuukw Trial. The Gitxsan territories lay all within the land claim area, in the northern and central Skeena, Nass and Babine Rivers and their tributaries. The original claims were altered and replaced with claims for aboriginal title and self-government, and eventually the individual claims by each House were amalgamated into two collective claims, one on behalf of the Wet’suwet’en Nation and the other for the Gitksan Nation. The Gitxsan Exhibits consist of Plaintiffs' expert witness evidence relating to the Gitxsan people, their territories and traditions. Series includes genealogy information, photographs, oral histories, maps, letters, interviews, and commission evidence.
