This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

  • Pages : 270 pages

Download or read book Saints and Citizens written by Lisbeth Haas and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saints and Citizens is a bold new excavation of the history of Indigenous people in California in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, showing how the missions became sites of their authority, memory, and identity. Shining a forensic eye on colonial encounters in Chumash, Luiseño, and Yokuts territories, Lisbeth Haas depicts how native painters incorporated their cultural iconography in mission painting and how leaders harnessed new knowledge for control in other ways. Through her portrayal of highly varied societies, she explores the politics of Indigenous citizenship in the independent Mexican nation through events such as the Chumash War of 1824, native emancipation after 1826, and the political pursuit of Indigenous rights and land through 1848.
