Where did the SALISH region lived?

The salish Indians were from Washington state around the puget sound and seattle area.Edit: Salish is a language spoken my many tribes, so there are no Salish Indians unless you count the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Reservation in Montana. Other than that tribes who speak Salishan languages live from the southwestern coast in British Columbia, south to northern Oregon, and west to about half of Montana. There are, of course, other language-speakers tribes there as well.Also, "The salish Indians were from Washington..." Native Americans, American Indians, First Peoples, whatever you want to call them are still here. They did not disappear, and therefore must not be spoken of in the past tense. They are not an anachronism.

The Salish peoples, indigenous to the Pacific Northwest Coast, first encountered Europeans in the late 18th century, primarily through explorers such as Captain James Cook and later fur traders. These early interactions often involved trade, but they also brought significant challenges, including the spread of diseases to which the Salish had no immunity. Additionally, these contacts marked the beginning of profound social, economic, and cultural changes for the Salish communities.
