Anthony Island (British Columbia)

Anthony Island is noted for being the location of the ruins of SkungWai or SG̱ang Gwaay Llnaagay, commonly called Ninstints after the reigning mid-19th Century chief there.

[1] Anthony Island is part of the Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve and Haida Heritage Site.

Its Haida name, SG̱ang Gwaay, refers to the wailing sound made when winds push through a hole in the rocks at a certain tide level.

[1] It reveals a 2000 year history and contains fragments from a rich culture and once prosperous village, including Ninstints totem poles and longhouses.
