  • Genetics, Linguistics, and Prehistoric Migrations: an Analysis of California Indian Mitochondrial DNA Lineages
    Journal of California and Great Basin Anttiropology | Vol, 26, No, 1 (2006) | pp 33-64 Genetics, Linguistics, and Prehistoric Migrations: An Analysis of California Indian Mitochondrial DNA Lineages JOHN R. JOHNSON Department of Anthropology, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History 2559 Puesta del Sol, Santa Barbara, CA 93105 JOSEPH G. LORENZ Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Coriell Institute for Medical Research 403 Haddon Avenue, Camden, NJ 08103 The advent of mitochondrial DNA analysis makes possible the study of past migrations among California Indians through the study of genetic similarities and differences. Four scenarios of language change correlate with observable genetic patterns: (1) initial colonization followed by gradual changes due to isolation; (2) population replacement; (3) elite dominance; and (4) intermarriage between adjacent groups. A total of 126 mtDNA samples were provided by contemporary California Indian descendants whose maternal lineages were traced back to original eighteenth and nineteenth century sociolinguistic groups using mission records and other ethnohistoric sources. In particular, those groups belonging to three language families (Chumashan, Uto-Aztecan, and Yokutsan) encompassed enough samples to make meaningful comparisons. The four predominant mtDNA haplogroups found among American Indians (A, B, C, and D) were distributed differently among populations belonging to these language families in California. Examination of the distribution of particular haplotypes within each haplogroup further elucidated the separate population histories of these three language families. The expansions of Yokutsan and Uto-Aztecan groups into their respective homelands are evident in the structure of genetic relationships within haplogroup diagrams. The ancient presence of Chumashan peoples in the Santa Barbara Channel region can be inferred from the presence of a number of haplotypes arrayed along a chain-like branch derived from the founding haplotype within Haplogroup A.

  • California Indian Warfare
    47 CALIFORNIA INDIAN WARFARE Steven R. James Suzanne Graziani 49 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION NORTHERN CALIFORNIA TRIBES CENTRAL COAST TRIBES CENTRAL INTERIOR TRIBES SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TRIBES COLORADO RIVER TRIBES DISCUSSION APPENDIX 1 A List of Warfare Encounters Between Tribes ILLUSTRATION Map Showing Names and Territories of California Tribes BIBLIOGRAPHY 51 INTRODUCTION With the exception of the Mohave and the Yuma Indians along the Colorado River, the tribes of California were considered to be peaceful, yet peaceful is an ambiguous word. While there was no large-scale or organized warfare outside the Colorado River area, all tribes seemed to be, at one time or another, engaged in fighting with their neighbors. There was a great deal of feuding between groups (tribelets or villages) within the individual tribes, also. The basic cause for warfare was economic competition, which included trespassing, and poaching, as well as murder. The Mohave and the Yuma, on the other hand, glorified war for itself. The ambiguity of the word "peaceful" is increased by the accounts in the ethnographies. For example, a tribe may be described as being "peaceful;" yet, warfare with certain neighbors was said to be "common." At times, there were actual contradictions in the information concerning tribal warfare and intertribal relationships. Apparently, each California tribe had contact with most of its neighbors, but for the purposes of this paper, we have divided the state into the following five areas of interaction: the Northern tribes, the Central Coast tribes, the Southern tribes, the Central Interior tribes, and tie Colorado River tribes. Within each area, we have attempted to ascertain which tribes were in agreement and which tribes were in conflict, and if the conflicts were chronic.

  • Ritual and Religion in the Ohlone Cultural Area of Central California
    RITUAL AND RELIGION IN THE OHLONE CULTURAL AREA OF CENTRAL CALIFORNIA A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Anthropology San José State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by Douglas A. Jones December 2015 © 2015 Douglas A. Jones ALL RIGHTS RESERVED The Designated Thesis Committee Approves the Thesis Titled RITUAL AND RELIGION IN THE OHLONE CULTURAL AREA OF CENTRAL CALIFORNIA by Douglas A. Jones APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY SAN JOSÉ STATE UNIVERSITY December 2015 Dr. Marco Meniketti Department of Anthropology Dr. Charlotte Sunseri Department of Anthropology Dr. Chuck Darrah Department of Anthropology ABSTRACT RITUAL AND RELIGION IN THE OHLONE CULTURAL AREA OF CENTRAL CALIFORNIA by Douglas A. Jones This thesis is an analysis of aspects of ritual and religion based upon reports from archaeological sites throughout the historical territory of the Native American peoples grouped by ethnographers under the term Ohlone, as well as other relevant sources of ethnographic, historical, and biographical information. Through research and review of recorded site documentation, as well as consultation with local archaeologists, three sites which clearly and extensively represent aspects of Ohlone religious life were identified and described in detail. This included type sites for mortuary practices, rock art, and cosmology/archaeoastronomy. The compilation and analysis of this material generated important information regarding an as-yet poorly understood aspect of prehistoric life in the Central California area, as well as potentially providing insight into the role of ritual and religion in California more generally. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are many people I would like to thank for their assistance in completing this thesis.
