[|'A Journey into Time Immemorial'] is based on First Nations traditional knowledge and content developed in collaboration with the Sto:lo web site development committee and staff of the [|Xa:ytem Longhouse Interpretive Center]. It is an artistic and cultural interpretation and is not meant to convey precisely accurate archaeological information. Contemporary archaeologists view First Nations as partners and value oral traditions as a source of information about the past that augments the scientific approach. Compare this site with 'A Journey to a New Land', a complementary web site done from a scientific perspective.
