The Souharissen Natural Area covers 55 acres in the Village of Waterdown, and is the result of years of work following the discovery of 104 Aboriginal archeological sites in the Waterdown Bay Development Area in 2005.
The Waterdown-Flamborough region was home to the Chonnonton Nation. The name Chonnonton means "the people who tend or manage deer," and they had a powerful leader with the hereditary name "Souharissen."
Along with the Indigenous sites, the foundations of an early-19th century dwelling were uncovered in the area. This dwelling may have been used by the first European settlers of Waterdown, Alexander Brown and Merren Grierson.
