Gitlax̱tʼaamiks, formerly New Aiyansh, is a Nisgaʼa village about 100 km (62 mi) north of Terrace, in the heart of the Nass River valley, Canada. It is one of four Nisga'a villages. Though it is located in British Columbia, it is also considered the "capital of the Nisga'a Nation". The Nisg̱a'a Lisims Government building, which opened in 2000, is located here. The area is home to 806 people and the Nisga'a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park. Gitlax̱tʼaamiks is located overlooking a lava flow that erupted in the 18th century. The source for this lava flow was the Tseax Cone.
