The Chinook tribe of the Pacific Northwest became expert middlemen in trade among various Native American peoples. They facilitated trade between coastal tribes and those from the interior, leveraging their strategic location along the Columbia River and their deep understanding of the region's trade networks. The Chinook's skills in negotiation and their valuable resources, such as fish and crafted goods, made them central figures in regional commerce.
