"In ... early times the hunters and trappers could not discover why the Blackfeet and Flatheads [of Montana] received their respective designations, for the feet of the former are no more inclined to sable than any other part of the body, while the heads of the latter possess their fair proportion of rotundity. Indeed it is only below the falls and rapids that real Flatheads appear, and at the mouth of the Columbia that they flourish most supernaturally. The tribes who practice the custom of flattening the head, and who lived at the mouth of the Columbia, differed little from each other in laws, manners or customs, and were composed of the Cathlamahs, Killmucks, Clatsops, Chinooks and Chilts. The abominable custom of flattening their heads prevails among them all." _P. Ronan, Historical Sketch of the Flathead Indian Nation, page 17._ In Major Powell's linguistic classification, the "Salishan Family" (Flathead) is given a distinct place. _J. W. Powell, Seventh Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology, page 102._ {87} AMERICAN ABORIGINES: Fox Indians. See above: ALGONQUIAN FAMILY, and below, SACS, &c.
