Title Source: Stoney Nakoda Elders provided naming and other culturally relevant information during interviews held for Recognizing Relations, an archives initiative active from 2014-2023. The photographs in the Elliot Barnes fonds were taken between 1900-1910. In interviews with Stoney Elders, this era was found to be outside the scope of their rememberance. No new identifications or confirmations were made.; The goal of this initiative was to name local Indigenous peoples in photographs held in the WMCR archives as well as encouraging access for Indigenous communities to these images.
