- The Dane-zaa (ᑕᓀᖚ, also spelled Dunneza, or Tsattine, and historically often referred to as the Beaver tribe by Europeans) are a First Nation of the Athapaskan language group, whose traditional territory is around the Peace River of the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. About 1,000 Dane-zaa live in British Columbia as part of Doig River First Nation, Blueberry River First Nation, Halfway River First Nation and Prophet River First Nation communities, and perhaps half speak the Danezaa language. Prior to 1800 they inhabited lands further east, near the Athabaska River and Clearwater River, and north to Lake Athabaska as well as territory north of the upper Peace River. Recent archaeological evidence establishes that the area of Charlie Lake north of Fort St John has been continuously occupied for 10,500 years. In the 18th century, the Peace River area was opened to fur trading. The Cree, a powerful people to the east of the Dane-zaa, had become highly dependent on the European goods and the maintenance of a trade monopoly with Northwest company traders (the Northwest Company later amalgamated with the Hudson Bay Company). Alexander Mackenzie established Rocky Mountain Fort at the mouth of the Moberly River in 1794. A post journal of 1799-1800 mentions people trading into the post who can be identified as the ancestors of members of the former Fort St John Band, now the Doig and Blueberry First Nations. Oral history collected from elders at Doig confirms that the ancestors of present Dane-zaa families were in the upper Peace River area prior to first contact by Alexander Mackenzie in 1793. Traders provisioned their further expeditions with bison meat and grease from the rich prairies of the upper Peace River area. By the time the Hudson's Bay Company took over the Northwest Company in 1823, bison had become commercially extinct. For many years the Dane-zaa have followed the teachings and songs of their Dreamers, who first predicted the coming of the Europeans. The last Dreamer, Charlie Yahey, died in 1976. The Dane-zaa of Fort St John took an adhesion to Treaty 8 in 1900. Today they continue to have a vibrant cultural and economic presence in the North Peace area.
- Los Beaver o tsattine son una tribu na-dené, cuyo nombre significaba “pueblo del castor”, o bien Dunne-za (pueblo auténtico), razón por la cual fueron llamados en inglés Beavers (castores). Vivían en zonas montañosas del Norte de Alberta.
- Dunnezat, jotka tunnetaan parhaiten englanninkielisellä nimellä Beaver, "majavat", olivat Kanadan subarktisen havumetsäalueen eteläosissa asuvia athabasca-ryhmän intiaaneja. Heimon alkuperäinen nimi Dunne-za, Dane-zaa, Tasttine tarkoittaa majavaa. Alkujaan dunnezat asuivat Peace-joen varrella, Athabascan ja Clearwater riversin lähellä, ja Athabasca-järvestä pohjoiseen. 1700-luvulla turkiskauppa alkoi, ja vuonna 1800 turkiskaupasta täysin riippuvaiset chippewat ajoivat dunnezat pohjoiseen ja länteen Peace Riverin ympäristöstä. Dunnezoja on nykyään noin 1 000.
