Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Practices of the Diegueno Indians In culture, the Diegueno show a marked similarity to their neighbors, the Luiseno on the north, and the Cahuilla on the northeast. In basket-making these people use almost exclusively the coiled weave. The basket designs of the Diegueno are rather simpler than those of the Luiseno and Cahuilla, and run largely to the horizontal band type. Like their neighbors they manu facture fairly good pottery of a brittle, porous variety. In place of the large conical burden-basket usual in California, the Die gueno use a large burden-net with a packstrap to go across the forehead. Twines made of milkweed, mescal or maguey, and nettle fibres, are employed by them in the manufacture of a large variety of textile objects, such as bags, ceremonial dresses, and the carrying nets just mentioned. From maguey fibre they make excellent sandals, of a type not found in California outside of this southern region. The Diegueno, as well as the Luiseno and Cahuilla, build houses of tule or California bulrush, which are fairly weather-proof and permanent. Although big game is nat urally scarce in their habitat, they make a powerful bowof wil low, its length and size compensating for the lack of sinew rein forcement. Altogether, in the matter of material culture, the Diegueno seem fully equal to the other people of the State. Alone, among all the tribes of the State, they together with their neighbors the Luiseiio, Cahuilla, and Mohave, have achieved the manufacture of pottery and the use of cloth-like textiles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The people known as Diegueño, called by themselves Kawakipai or southern people, occupy the extreme southern part of California. The region which they inhabit coincides approximately with the boundaries of San Diego county.In culture, the Diegueño show a marked similarity to their neighbors, the Luiseño on the north, and the Cahuilla on the northeast.Most of the rites which the Diegueño have in common with the Luiseño belong to a definite cultus. This cultus is what has been described among the Luiseño as the "Chungichnish worship." Among the Diegueño it is known as awik or Western system. As described elsewhere in the present paper, and in another paper of this series by a different author, this cultus centers around an initiatory rite, which consists in drinking ceremonially a decoction of toloache or jimsonweed, Datura meteloides.In studying the religious practices of the Diegueño a distinction is therefore always to be kept in mind between the rites which belong on the one hand to the cultus and on the other to the ordinary ceremonies, since the latter exhibit a totally different animus, and have no definite relation either to the cultus or to each other.

Download or read book Peyotism and the Native American Church written by Phillip M. White and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-09-30 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest religion begun, organized, and directed by and for Native Americans, Peyotism includes the use of peyote in its ceremonies. As a sacred plant of divine origin, peyote use was well established in religious rituals in pre-Columbian Mexico. Toward the end of the 19th century Peyotism spread to the Indians of Texas and the Southwest, and it spread rapidly in the United States after the subsidence of the Ghost Dance. It persists today among Native Americans in Northern Mexico, the United States, and Southern Canada. Possibly because of the controversy over peyote use, a lot has been written about the Native American Church. This bibliography provides a useful guide for scholars, students, and Native Americans who want to research Peyotism. The bibliography includes books and book chapters, master's theses, Ph.D. dissertations, magazine and journal articles, conference papers, museum publications, U.S. government publications, audiovisual materials, and World Wide Web sites. In addition, it includes selected articles from newspapers, law reviews, medical and psychiatric journals, and scientific journals that provide information on Peyotism. A valuable research guide, the bibliography will help to provide a greater understanding of the history, ceremonies, and significance of the pan-Indian religion.
