of ȱ tribelet ȱ political ȱ organization, ȱ similar ȱ to ȱ the ȱ tribelet ȱ system ȱ of ȱ the ȱ Pomo Ȭspeaking ȱ populations ȱ of ȱ the ȱ northern ȱ San ȱ Francisco ȱ Bay ȱ area, ȱ although ȱ social ȱcontrol ȱand ȱgroup ȱleadership ȱof ȱthe ȱSalinan ȱwere ȱnever ȱdocumented ȱ(Millike nȱ2004:1 78). ȱȱ ȱ The ȱQuiguil ȱtribelet ȱarea ȱmay ȱhave ȱbeen ȱthe ȱclosest ȱto ȱthe ȱcurrent ȱstudy ȱarea. ȱWhile ȱthe ȱ exact ȱ tribelet ȱ territory ȱ has ȱ not ȱ been ȱ precisely ȱ defined, ȱ Milliken ȱ estimates ȱ the ȱ pre Ȭmission ȱ population ȱof ȱQuiguil ȱto ȱhave ȱbeen ȱ180 ȱ–ȱ200 ȱpeople. ȱOf ȱthese, ȱ133 ȱQuiguil ȱwere ȱbaptized ȱandȱ Mission ȱSan ȱAntonio ȱfrom ȱ1779 ȱ–ȱ1786 ȱ(Milliken ȱ2004:196). ȱMilliken ȱsuggests ȱthat ȱthe ȱQuiguil ȱ territory ȱmay ȱhave ȱbeen ȱcentered ȱin ȱthe ȱupper ȱSan ȱAntonio ȱRiver ȱwatershed. ȱIt ȱthen ȱextended ȱ further ȱeast ȱto ȱthe ȱtop ȱof ȱJunipero ȱSerra ȱPeak, ȱsoutheast ȱalong ȱthe ȱeast ȱside ȱof ȱthe ȱPinal ȱCreek ȱ watershed ȱ an dȱ
