The subsistence economy of the Dogrib Indians of Lac La Martre in the Mackenzie District of the Northwest Territories / by June Helm and Nancy O. Lurie.: R42-3/1961-3E-PDF

"The Marten Lake Indians as a regional group have long been recognized in the historical literature. In fact, Marten Lake appears very early in the reports, the Northwest Company establishing a trading fort on the lake in 1790, but the purpose was to exploit the trading potential of the peoples along the Mackenzie to the west, rather than to trade with the Marten Lake group per se."--p. 7.
