Palouse Indian families supplemented a salmon-based diet by migrating from riverside mat lodge villages to the mountains for game, roots, and berries, and Appaloosa horses played a paramount role in tribal life. In the Touchet River valley at Dayton, regional tribes gathered in summer to trade and socialize, with pony races on what is now Main Street, dancing, and stick game gambling providing entertainment. In Nez Perce, Touchet River means roasting, and legend tells that coyote roasted salmon there after breaking a fish dam guarded by the five swallow sisters of Celilo. For generations, Native Americans used the Lewis and Clark Trail, also known as the Celilo Falls Trail, as a trade route later noted by Lewis and Clark as a well traveled road, and major portions of it remain in use today while original remnants survive on the breaks of the Tucannon River. Starbuck became a rail center in 1882 and was named for General W.H. Starbuck, who donated a steeple bell shipped around Cape Horn to the community church in exchange for fame. Columbia County was created in 1875 from the eastern portion of Walla Walla County after settlers drawn by wood, water, and fertile land had brought livestock, planted wheat in 1861, built grist and lumber mills, established orchards, and gained market outlets through the Walla Walla-Lewiston Wagon Road in 1862.
