Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians


 image

The Confederated Tribes include many tribes and bands whose homelands included all of Oregon west of the Cascade Summit. Ten different languages are represented. Our ancestors signed treaties in the 1850s and agreed to go to the 1.1 million acre Siletz Reservation. The reservation then was taken from us piece by piece without compensation and in violation of treaties, leading up to Termination in 1956. Our tribe then became the second formerly terminated Tribe in the nation, and the first in Oregon, to regain federal recognition through the 1977 Siletz Restoration Act. We have prospered by obeying the Creator's laws and living in balance with the land.
