Geschichte:
Bella Coola is the traditional home of the First Nations, the Nuxalk Nation. The Thorsen Creek Petroglyphs include over 100 native rock paintings, which indicates that this area had been populated long before written records. It has also had a strong Norwegian heritage influence resulting from settlement in the area in the 1890’s.
