История
Wawawai is a former town in the south central part of Whitman County, Washington in the United States. It got its name from a Nez Perce word said to mean "council ground." The town was platted in 1878 and served a community of orchards along the Snake River. The river would ultimately lead to Wawawai's demise as water rose behind Lower Granite Dam, which was completed in 1975, and submerged what was once Wawawai under 80 feet of water. Wawawai County Park is located along the banks of the river immediately above the former town site.
