Indians of Southern California (Pamphlet)

Description

Author: Walker, Edwin F.  (1872-1956)

Publisher: Southwest Museum

Pub Date: Not dated (1970?)

Binding: Paperback

Condition: Fair to Good.  Stapled binding tight.  No marks, tears, bends or folds.  Very light edge and corner wear.  Appears unused.

Notes: Walker gives the California Indians lots of credit–digging of deep wells (think “Indian Wells”), a money economy, turquoise mining and trade, boat building, shell ornaments, stone and bone artifacts, women’s rights, sophisticated languages, and “peace” (i.e. lack of warfare).  Lots of information in 16 pages.
