In our Lushootseed language we are known as the spuyaləpabš. The literal translation of this word means “people from the bend at the bottom of the river.” This refers to the many dispersed villages that spanned outward from the mouth of the Puyallup River, near the present day site of the Tacoma Dome. The name spuyaləpabš also became associated with our peoples’ welcoming and generous behavior. Over time the meaning of spuyaləpabš, or Puyallup, has taken on this association.
We are one of the many Lushootseed speaking peoples of the northwest. Prior to European settlement, our people lived in villages from the foothills of təqʷuʔmaʔ/təqʷuʔbəd along the rivers, creeks, and prairies to the shores and islands of the Puget Sound.
