Based mainly upon the testimonies of nineteenth and twentieth century Maidu inhabitants of the Honey Lake Valley in Lassen County, California, we present a Maidu perspective on local knowledge, such as where they lived, hunted, gathered, and buried their dead in the prehistoric and early histori­ cal periods. Drawing on family tape recordings and interview notes in the possession of the authors, as well as a range of other sources, this article is intended as a contribution to Maidu ethnogeography in the Honey Lake Valley region. While acknowledging that several ethnic groups lived in or near this region in the early historical period, atui that boundaries are social construas that may overlap and about which groups may hold different interpretations, we document a cross-generational Maidu perspective on their territorial range in the remembered past.

  • Sites Reservoir Project Public Draft EIR/EIS
    18. Cultural/Tribal Cultural Resources 18.1 Introduction This chapter describes the cultural resources setting for the Extended, Secondary, and Primary study areas. Cultural resources are sites, buildings, structures, objects, and districts that may have traditional or cultural value. This broad range of resources includes archaeological sites that reflect the prehistoric and historic-era past; historic-era resources, such as buildings and structures; landscapes and districts; and traditional cultural properties (TCPs), i.e., those resources that are historically rooted in a community’s beliefs, customs, and practices.1 Tribal cultural resources (TCRs), which were established by the State of California under Assembly Bill (AB) 52 and are similar resources that have specific cultural value to Native Americans, are also addressed. Descriptions and maps of these three study areas are provided in Chapter 1 Introduction. Permits and authorizations for cultural and tribal resources are presented in Chapter 4 Environmental Compliance and Permit Summary. The regulatory setting for cultural resources is presented in Appendix 4A Environmental Compliance. This chapter focuses primarily on the Primary Study Area. Potential impacts in the Secondary and Extended study areas were evaluated and discussed qualitatively. Potential local and regional impacts from constructing, operating, and maintaining the alternatives were described and compared to applicable significance thresholds. Mitigation measures are provided for identified potentially significant impacts, where appropriate. 18.2 Affected Environment 18.2.1 Extended Study Area 18.2.1.1 Prehistoric Context Archaeologists study the physical evidence of past human behavior called “material culture.”2 The archaeologists look for changes in material culture over time and across geographic regions to reconstruct the past.

TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Diveena S. Marcus 2016 Indigenous Studies Ph.D. Graduate Program September 2016 ABSTRACT Hiya ʼAa Ma Pichas ʼOpe Ma Hammako He Ma Papʼoyyisko (Let Us Understand Again Our Grandmothers and Our Grandfathers): Map of the Elders, Cultivating Indigenous North Central California Consciousness By Diveena S. Marcus The Tamalko (Coast Miwok) North Central California Indigenous people have lived in their homelands since their beginnings. California Indigenous people have suffered violent and uncompromising colonial assaults since European contact began in the 16th century. However, many contemporary Indigenous Californians are thriving today as they reclaim their Native American sovereign rights, cultural renewal, and well- being. Culture Bearers are working diligently as advocates and teachers to re-cultivate Indigenous consciousness and knowledge systems. The Tamalko author offers Indigenous perspectives for hinak towis hennak (to make a good a life) through an ethno- autobiographical account based on narratives by Culture Bearers from four Indigenous North Central California Penutian-speaking communities and the author’s personal experiences. A Tamalko view of finding and speaking truth hinti wuskin ʼona (what the heart says) has been the foundational principle of the research method used to illuminate and illustrate Indigenous North Central California consciousness.

    Native Languages Archives Repository Project Reference Guide REFERENCE GUIDE SUMMARY To share with future generations, this Reference Guide was developed in support of the Native American Languages Act of 1992 to assure the survival and continuing vitality of Native languages. This Reference Guide – Native Language Preservation, Establishing Archives and Repositories - was produced with funding provided by the Administration for Native Americans (ANA) through an Interagency Agreement with the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI). Native heritage languages are indeed endangered and immediate action is needed to save them. Language experts estimate that ninety percent of the 175 Native American languages spoken today are at risk and could disappear over the next two decades. This Reference Guide looks at the complex matter of saving languages through an intensely focused lens of language materials preservation and it provides practical ways in which communities, people and entities can marshal forces, combine efforts and apply resources to this emergency need. In conducting this project and preparing the Reference Guide, the first question that needed to be answered was: What is a language repository? A language repository is a collection of language materials that is being preserved in an orderly and accessible manner. The second question was: What is preservation? Preservation is an act to prevent further deterioration of any kind to records or materials. The old lines between archives, libraries, museums and repositories are blurring, if not disappearing, along with strict distinctions between electronic and physical repositories. While types of repositories are discussed in this Reference Guide the focus is on language repositories broadly and on language preservation and archival issues in detail.
