For example the Coast Salish while foragers were also inveterate slavers who held personal property (slaves counting as such).

Large scale systematic fish trapping and fisheries management in many places including the Salish Sea.

Hunter-gatherer societies only see that at the richest end of their scale (again, the Salish were a good example of that), and even then the stratification is fairly meager by agriculturalist standards.

There's enormous work on typologically diverse languages such as Japanese, Salish languages, Greenlandic, Basque, Gungbe or Kwa.

They’re quite common here in the Salish Sea and have been cited as the reason that the Boeing hydrofoil project never really took off.

He pointed out there is no evidence that the Salish people made use of University of Washington lands, so the whole thing is a farce.

PNW Salish) that it's possible for a few people to live off the surplus generated by the rest.

Also countless placenames, like Seattle (Salish).
