This profile is intended to bring a broad understanding to the reader and is not comprehensive in any manner. Identifying specific information with regard to the location of prehistoric (or contemporary) use areas is not appropriate in a document of this sort. There are tables of archaeological species documented as being utilized in the past; this list is neither complete nor comprehensive as archaeological data is jaded as a function of preservation, if faunal remains do not preserve then they are not captured in archaeological recovery projects. The Bear River Band of the Rohnerville Rancheria is located on a rural parcel of Federal Trust land located two miles east of Loleta, CA. It overlooks the mouth of the Eel River and the Pacific Ocean; this land lies within the ancestral territory of the tribes served by the Bear River Rancheria. Tribal lands now amount to 191 acres, of which 62 are trust lands. The Tribe currently has 400 members. The Rohnerville Rancheria was established in 1910 as a refuge for dispossessed Indian people. It drew in members from various tribes in the area. The Rancheria was terminated following the California Rancheria Act of 1958, and was reinstated after the Tillie Hardwick vs. United States case of 1983. The Bear River Band of the Rohnerville Rancheria is federally recognized as having members from the Bear River/Mattole tribes and the Wiyot tribes. Its members have direct ancestral links to each of the local tribes, and principally to the Wiyot, Bear River, Mattole, Lassik, Nongatl, Sinkyone and Whilkut. The members of Bear River are active in hunting and gathering, ceremony, traditional manufacturing and many other aspects of continued use of traditional resources. 187 Since the Rancheria’s inception a century ago, Bear River has established itself as one of the most progressivetribesinthearea.Ithasatribalgovernmentcomposedatribalcouncilandanelectedchair and a constitution. It has established numerous other administrative offices: a Historic Preservation Office, an Environmental Department, and Administration on Aging Department, a Child Care 188 Department,aLibrary,andaTribalSocialServicesDepartment.Fiveyearsago,theTribeopenedacasino and in 2009 it opened a gas station. In short, the Tribe has demonstrated great resourcefulness in developingselffundedandstateandfederalfundedprojects.

  • The Right Thing to Do: Returning Land to the Wiyot Tribe
    THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE by Karen Elizabeth Nelson A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts In Sociology May, 2008 THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE by Karen Elizabeth Nelson Approved by the Master’s Thesis Committee: Jennifer Eichstedt, Committee Chair Date Elizabeth Watson, Committee Member Date Judith Little, Committee Member Date Jennifer Eichstedt, Graduate Coordinator Date Chris Hopper, Interim Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE Karen Elizabeth Nelson In 2004, the Eureka City Council legally returned forty acres of Indian Island to the Wiyot tribe. This return occurred one hundred and forty four years after the Indian Island massacre. This research explores the returning of sacred tribal land in the context of collective apologies and reconciliations after generations of Native genocide. The significance of this case study includes a detailed narration of how the land transfer occurred and more importantly why it was labeled “the right thing to do” by Eureka City Council members and staff. This case study was examined with a grounded theory methodology. Using no hypotheses, the research and the research methodology unfolded in a non-linear process, letting the research speak for itself. Detailed interviews and a review of documents were used to qualify and quantify this unique community based social act. The results of this case study include how and why the Eureka City Council returned forty acres of Indian Island to the Wiyot people.

  • 3.6 Cultural Resources, Including Tribal Cultural Resources
    3.6 CULTURAL RESOURCES, INCLUDING TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES This section presents an evaluation of the potential impacts of project implementation on cultural resources. “Cultural resources” is a general term that encompasses CEQA’s historical resource and unique archaeological resource (see Section 3.6.2, “Regulatory Setting,” for definitions of historical resources and unique archaeological resources). Cultural resources may include archaeological traces such as early Native American occupation sites and artifacts, historic-age buildings and structures, and places used for traditional Native American observances or places with special cultural significance. These materials can be found at many locations on the landscape, and along with prehistoric and historic human remains and associated grave-goods, are protected under various state and local statutes. Tribal cultural resources are sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe. During the public scoping comment period, comments relevant to tribal lands and artifacts, and previous Scotia EIRs that addressed historical resource planning, protection, and the special Scotia Historic Resource Protection zoning provisions were received. These topics are discussed in this section. 3.6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The information in this section was collected from the following cultural resources technical reports that were prepared for the project applicant.
