By Torsten Kjellstrand, The Oregonian

Always Celilo -- "No falls. Fewer fish. Marginal land. Why stay?"

Before people, before governments, before treaties, forces collided at Celilo. Monsters, a creation story goes, dammed the Columbia river so the salmon couldn't swim up it. But Coyote fought back.

Today there's a new dam built by the U.S. government that Coyote couldn't claw through.
