On Wikipedia
Duwamish Head is the northernmost point in West Seattle, Washington, jutting into Elliott Bay. The Duwamish called it "Low Point" or "Base of the Point" (Lushootseed: sgWudaqs). A large boulder covered with petroglyphs once lay on the beach. The Duwamish tribe was relocated to a reservation here in 1856, which at the time was referred to as Holderness Point. From 1907 to 1913 it was the site of an amusement park, Luna Park. Today Alki Beach Park extends southwestward from Duwamish Head to Alki Point; the area at the head is sometimes called "Anchor Park" due to the 5,000-pound (2,300 kg) anchor at the site.
