Native American Contact List Date Revised California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) Native American Contact List Date Revised: July 1, 2020 Note: This list is intended for use by Registered Professional Foresters (RPFs), CAL FIRE Project Managers and archeologists, CAL FIRE’s Certified Archaeological Surveyors, and consulting archaeologists when determining what California Native American Tribes to consult with during the development and review of Timber Harvesting Plans (THPS) and other CAL FIRE Projects. The CAL FIRE archaeologist assigned to maintain this list is Steven Grantham. Please direct any information concerning list revisions to Steven’s attention. This Native American Contact List is maintained by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) in consultation with the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). The list is authorized in California’s Forest Practice Regulations (14 CCR Section 895.1) and identifies the appropriate Native American groups and individuals to be contacted when reviewing and or developing CAL FIRE projects. The list contains all federally recognized tribes and other appropriate contacts. Federally recognized tribes are designated with an asterisk. This list is organized by counties in alphabetical order. Project managers are responsible to notify all the listed contacts for the county containing the project if that county is designated “ALL”. Fifteen of the counties have been split into divisions with defined geographic boundaries. In those instances, project managers are responsible to notify the listed contacts in the portion of the county containing the project. The boundaries of those divisions are also provided in a set of county maps. The maps can be viewed on-line, but we recommend the desired map be printed as the printed maps provide better resolution. The NACL is currently revised minimally on a biannual basis. Please contact CAL FIRE Associate State Archeologist Steven Grantham via email at [email protected] or by telephone at (707) 599-6895 or (707) 726-1256 if changes are needed or errors/omissions are observed.

This Reservation criminal justice display is designed to provide information we consider pertinent, to those concerned with Indian criminal justice systems.

Of the many linguistic families in California most are con- fined to single areas, but the large Moquelumnan or Miwok family is one of the few exceptions, in that the people speaking its various dialects occupy three distinct areas. These three areas, while actually quite near together, are at considerable distances from one another as compared with the areas occupied by any of the other linguistic families that are separated. The northern of the three Miwok areas, which may for con- venience be called the Northern Coast or Lake area, is situated in the southern extremity of Lake county and just touches, at its northern boundary, the southernmost end of Clear lake.

  • Plants Used in Basketry by the California Indians
    PLANTS USED IN BASKETRY BY THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS BY RUTH EARL MERRILL PLANTS USED IN BASKETRY BY THE CALIFORNIA INDIANS RUTH EARL MERRILL INTRODUCTION In undertaking, as a study in economic botany, a tabulation of all the plants used by the California Indians, I found it advisable to limit myself, for the time being, to a particular form of use of plants. Basketry was chosen on account of the availability of material in the University's Anthropological Museum. Appreciation is due the mem- bers of the departments of Botany and Anthropology for criticism and suggestions, especially to Drs. H. M. Hall and A. L. Kroeber, under whose direction the study was carried out; to Miss Harriet A. Walker of the University Herbarium, and Mr. E. W. Gifford, Asso- ciate Curator of the Museum of Anthropology, without whose interest and cooperation the identification of baskets and basketry materials would have been impossible; and to Dr. H. I. Priestley, of the Ban- croft Library, whose translation of Pedro Fages' Voyages greatly facilitated literary research. Purpose of the sttudy.-There is perhaps no phase of American Indian culture which is better known, at least outside strictly anthro- pological circles, than basketry. Indian baskets are not only concrete, durable, and easily handled, but also beautiful, and may serve a variety of purposes beyond mere ornament in the civilized household. Hence they are to be found in. our homes as well as our museums, and much has been written about the art from both the scientific and the popular standpoints. To these statements, California, where American basketry.
