The original document was a companion piece to the 1993 Native Education Directory: Organizations and Resources for Educators of Native Peoples of the United States and Territories. The revised version coincides with the recent release of a new national directory, 1998 Native Education Directory: Organizations and Resources for Native Americans. It has also been expanded to include listings of Head Start, Child Care, Title IX programs and Johnson O'Malley contractors in Arizona, California, Utah, and Nevada. This Directory is intended to be a catalyst for the exchange of first-hand information among individual users and listed organizations. The brief descriptions are meant only to suggest the content and scope of each organization's objectives and services. Effort has been made to obtain information about each entry, although some have more docu- mentation than others. The organizations listed in this directory reflect the four states in the West Ed region. Inclusion does not suggest en- dorsement of any organization by West Ed. The Directory was initially the product of a national collabora- tion among eight of the regional educational laboratories, the Native Education Initiative. Each of the participating laboratories produced a directory for its region. The directory for the West Ed region was also supported by the Rural Schools Assistance Program. Currently West Ed has independently taken the initiative to update and expand this direc- tory, as part of its Indigenous Education Collaborative (IEC). For further INTRODUCTION TO THE DIRECTORY I information about the Collaborative, call Sharon Nelson-Barber, Elise Trumbull, or Floyd Beller at 415-565-3000. West Ed (formerly, Far West Laboratory for Educational Research and Development) is one of 10 Regional Education Laborato- ries established by Congress in 1966. Today, the laboratories' enduring mission is to improve the quality of education by helping policymakers and practitioners apply the best available knowledge from research, development, and practice. As noted above, West Ed serves the four Western Region states: Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah. As a nonprofit agency,

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.

  • Chapter 2. Native Languages of West-Central California
    Chapter 2. Native Languages of West-Central California This chapter discusses the native language spoken at Spanish contact by people who eventually moved to missions within Costanoan language family territories. No area in North America was more crowded with distinct languages and language families than central California at the time of Spanish contact. In the chapter we will examine the information that leads scholars to conclude the following key points: The local tribes of the San Francisco Peninsula spoke San Francisco Bay Costanoan, the native language of the central and southern San Francisco Bay Area and adjacent coastal and mountain areas. San Francisco Bay Costanoan is one of six languages of the Costanoan language family, along with Karkin, Awaswas, Mutsun, Rumsen, and Chalon. The Costanoan language family is itself a branch of the Utian language family, of which Miwokan is the only other branch. The Miwokan languages are Coast Miwok, Lake Miwok, Bay Miwok, Plains Miwok, Northern Sierra Miwok, Central Sierra Miwok, and Southern Sierra Miwok. Other languages spoken by native people who moved to Franciscan missions within Costanoan language family territories were Patwin (a Wintuan Family language), Delta and Northern Valley Yokuts (Yokutsan family languages), Esselen (a language isolate) and Wappo (a Yukian family language). Below, we will first present a history of the study of the native languages within our maximal study area, with emphasis on the Costanoan languages. In succeeding sections, we will talk about the degree to which Costanoan language variation is clinal or abrupt, the amount of difference among dialects necessary to call them different languages, and the relationship of the Costanoan languages to the Miwokan languages within the Utian Family.
