Duwamish Tribe of Indians [Unrecognized]
Lands ceded to the United States by treaty, law or executive order, 1855–1873, as Charles C. Royce recorded them in 1899 — 26,803 km² in 7 cessions across Washington.
A cession records when the United States took title — not the full extent of a homeland, and much land was taken without any treaty. The link between each cession and present-day nations is the one the U.S. Forest Service and the National NAGPRA Program’s dataset records; the nation’s own account comes first.

No trail in Project Homeland crosses these lands yet. A map that shows one, traced in, would add it.
