People in the plateau firmly believe there is a soul of life and abiotic existence.
People have a strong spiritual relationship with nature and place great emphasis on animals. The most important are deer, coyotes, and horses.
They have many myths and legends that have been handed down for generations. We will involve creators, mostly known as "coyotes".
Coyote is believed to be responsible for bringing squid to the river every spring and autumn and transforming people into their present form.
An important moment of the people of the plateau of this year is the arrival of spring. They celebrated the emergence of the first maslun or first fruit in spring.

Every year Okanagan, Nlaka'pamux, Secwepemc, Stl'atl'imx hold a so-called "Winter Guardian Spiritual Dance" organized by Shaman.
The people of Ktunaxa lived in the immediate vicinity of the plain, and they held Sundance again (just like ordinary people).
They are paintings in the form of humans and animals, or spiritual figures (see the left figure).
The highland women are skilled craftsmen. They weave baskets, blankets, mats and clothes with goat's wool and bark
One common type of basket is called "coil basket" and each row is woven into the previous row. This gives the appearance of a continuous helix
People decorated a lot of clothes with beads. Most beads are made of saponite
Highland women are responsible for making all the clothes for the family, such as dresses, tights, shirts, jackets, robes.
Before they can make clothes with animal leather, women must go through a long process of leather preparation and tanning.
Sea otographs are usually made of animal and animal skins. They are designed to prevent these factors
Shirts are usually made of animal skin, and some groups like Ktunaxa decorate shirts with long stripes.
The plateau is very cold in winter, so they need to make clothes to keep it warm.
People in the highlands believe in personal things, spirit of life and things other than life. Every aspect of life is full of relations with the spiritual realm. Sherman hosts tribal dance and ceremonies. The winter guardian dance is the main ceremony of the people of the plateau. The people of Kuttenay practice Sundance and point out relationships with the ordinary people. For some time some tribal tribes obviously adopted Christianity but then returned to their old beliefs.
People who arrived at the plateau arrived at the plateau from the south about 10,000 years ago because the glacier retreated to the north. In the history of the country, the Canadian plateau was divided into three main groups: Athapascan, Interior Salish and Ktunaxa. These three groups can be further divided into eight major plateau groups: Tsilhqot'in (formerly Chilcotin), Carrier, Nicola, Secwepemc (formerly Shuswap), Stl'atl'imx (formerly Lillooet) Okanagan, Nlaka 'pream (formerly Thompson) and Ktunaxa (formerly Kutenai or Kootenay). The language of the highland language is divided into three main language groups: Athapascan, Salishian, and Ktunaxa.
