Synopsis "What was Said to me: The Life of Sti'Tum'Atul'Wut, a Cowichan Woman "

 A narrative of resistance and resilience spanning seven decades in the life of a tireless advocate for Indigenous language preservation. Life histories are a form of contemporary social history and convey important messages about identity, cosmology, social behaviour and one&;s place in the world. This first-person oral history&;the first of its kind ever published by the Royal BC Museum&;documents a period of profound social change through the lens of Sti&;tum&;atul&;wut&;also known as Mrs. Ruby Peter&;a Cowichan elder who made it her life&;s work to share and safeguard the ancient language of her people: Hul&;q&;umi&;num&;. Over seven decades, Sti&;tum&;atul&;wut mentored hundreds of students and teachers and helped thousands of people to develop a basic knowledge of the Hul&;q&;umi&;num&; language. She contributed to dictionaries and grammars, and helped assemble a valuable corpus of stories, sound and video files&;with more than 10,000 pages of texts from Hul&;q&;umi&;num&; speakers&;that has been described as &;a treasure of linguistic and cultural knowledge.&; Without her passion, commitment and expertise, this rich legacy of material would not exist for future generations
