Includes bibliographical references. "This handbook provides information to help other Indigenous communities to repatriate their own place names: to carry out Indigenous place names research; to verify and correct the spelling of their names; and to have the names replace colonial names on official maps. The information and best practices identified in this handbook are based on over two decades of place names research carried out in the Gwich’in Settlement Region under the direction of Gwich’in Elders and traditional land users. We hope this handbook will be a valuable resource for those carrying out such research and will foster a greater understanding of the significance of Indigenous place names and the many benefits to recording them and bringing them back into active use"--page vii.
