Abstract

This article focuses on the somewhat neglected phenomenon of band-level territoriality and its implications for understanding the much more extensively debated family hunting territory system. The organisational levels of the family and the band are part and parcel of a customary tenure system that has endured the proliferating entanglements of fur trade history and the modern industrial period through a dynamic balancing of the rights and interests of families within those of the larger band – and more recently of the regional nation. It is through participation in larger collectivities that families' prerogatives are recognised and reproduced.
