Who we are

We are cultural resource management consultants
specializing in Northwest Coast archaeology,
traditional use studies and culturally modified trees.

Kleanza is a small archaeology consulting company with offices in Terrace and Vancouver, and satellite offices in Prince Rupert, Smithers, and Gabriola Island. We mobilize easily and quickly to all locations in the province of BC, including Haida Gwaii, Vancouver Island, and the Gulf Islands. Having archaeologists in communities throughout the province reduces travel costs for our clients.

Kleanza Consulting is named after Kleanza Creek, which flows from the Kleanza Mountains into the Skeena River in northwest, BC. Kleanza is a Tsimshian word meaning “Gold”. Our main office is located in the Kleanza subdivision, across from the Kitselas community of Gitaus. Our subdivision is bordered by the Kleanza Creek Provincial Park which protects regionally significant cultural features, such as the historic era steamboat village and railway town of Kitselas, as well as a portion of the 5000 + year old archaeological sites at Kitselas Canyon National Historic Site.
