Ancient Settlement in British Columbia, Canada
This is the site of a Tsawwassen Aboriginal Native Long House that was dismantled in order to construct a ferry terminal in 1958.
There is now a rock & stone mound with a native totem placed there.
The site may have been a native settlement for many centuries.
