"The Siletz lived along the Pacific Coast in northern Oregon, in parts of what are now Tillamook, Lincoln, and Lane counties. They were part of a larger group of Native Americans called the Tillamook, whose lands stretched from Tillamook Head in Clatsop County to the Siletz River in Lincoln County, Oregon. They built villages along the mouths of principal rivers that flow west from the Pacific Coast Range. In the early twenty-first century the Siletz reservation is located in western Oregon, mainly in Lincoln County, but 35 acres are Marion County. The tribe also serves an eleven-county area of western Oregon".-encyclopedia.com.
