Tutchone Indians
of Canada
Tutchone. Usually called
Tutchone-kutchin, but their connection with the true Kutchin seems
to be denied by later investigators; meaning of name "Crow People."
Also called:
Caribou Indians, by Dall (1877, p. 32).
Gens de bois, by Whymper (1869, p. 255).
Gens des Foux, by Dall (1870, p. 429).
Klo-a-tsul-tshik´, by Dawson (1889, p. 202).
Mountain Indians, by Hardisty (1867, p. 311).
Nehaunee, by Dall (1877, p. 32). (So called by Hudson's Bay Co.
men.)
Tatanchaks, by Colyer (1870, p. 593).
Wood Indians, by Dawson (1889, p. 202). (So called by fur traders.)
Connections. The Tutchone belonged to the Athapascan stock
and were probably most closely related to the Han Indians on the
Yukon River to the north and the Nabesna Indians to the west.
Location. Between the Han Indians and the Nahane country.
Population. Hodge (1910), gives 1,100, on what authority is
not stated, and it is uncertain how many other tribes may be
included in whole or in part.
