The Creation and Flute Lure Myths: Regional Patterns in Southern California Traditions
Journal of California and Great Basin Anthropology Vol. 23, No. 2, pp. 155-178 (2001) The Creation and Flute Lure Myths: Regional Patterns in Southern California Traditions DON LAYLANDER ASM Affiliates, Inc. 543 Encinitas Blvd., Suite 114, Encinitas, GA 92024 Among the 'ways in 'which traditional narratives shed light on prehistory, regional variations in shared myths provide insights concerning cultural conservatism or fluidity and the patterns of social interaction among groups. A comparative analysis offwo myths recorded in numerous versions from southern California, 'western Arizona, and northern Baja California suggests that the region's traditional cultures 'were shaped by ongoing borro'wing and innovation to a greater extent than has sometimes been supposed, and that individual narrative motifs typically had relatively short lifespans ofafe'w centuries at most. Cultural interaction among the region's different peoples 'was evidently little constrained by disparate linguistic heritages, competing military alliances, or social and economic dissimilarities. "KTative Californian traditional narratives shed light on regional prehistory and ethnohistory in -/.\ several different ways. In some cases, they directly preserved information about past events (e.g., Laylander). More generally, they reflect past lifeways, including material culture and social organization, but in particular they mirror ideas about human nature, morality, and aesthetics which were otherwise often not well documented (e.g., Blackburn 1975). The present study considers two additional ways in which traditional narratives are revealing, based on interethnic sharing of common narrative themes and story elements. Diachronically considered, the extent to which patterns of narrative sharing crosscut the primary lines of cultural descent, as those were marked by linguistic affiliations, is a measure of the extent to which the groups' traditions were open to borrowing and innovation, rather than static and conservative. -

Shaman Storytellers
Pre Columbian People OF CALIFORNIA SHAMAN STORYTELLERS WHERE TO HOUSES PUT A WEIR THAT SWEAT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH Pre_Columbian_Cover.indd 1 2/3/17 3:54 PM 2 Meet the California Indians Redwood forests and ocean coasts. River valleys, towering mountains, and dusty deserts. California has all of these land- scapes – and more. Today, people might choose to live in such places because they like mountain views or the sound of waves. But in the past, the places where people lived played a role in how they lived: what types of homes they built, the food they ate, even what they did for fun. In turn, how people lived had an effect on their environment. Before the Spanish came to California in 1769, about 300,000 native Californians lived there. Different groups were spread out all over. Sometimes they came together to trade, or exchange, goods or food. But land and water often served as walls that kept people apart. That’s why the many different groups of California Indians spoke at least 90 different lan- guages! But these groups still had things in common. For example, almost all of them could easily find food. So, most groups were hunter-gatherers. Since they had to work hard to get food, most groups stayed in one place. They had more time to make goods and build the collections of stories that taught young people their ways of life. How did the California Indians live with the land? How did they change it to meet their needs? Read on to find out how geography played a role in the culture, or ways of life, of California’s native people. -
