Pillow : Inhabitants of California
Home Decor from Mary Evans Picture Library
Inhabitants of California
Inhabitants of California - a region inhabited by more than 70 distinct groups of Native Americans. Large, settled populations lived on the coast and hunted sea mammals, fished for salmon, and gathered shellfish, while groups in the interior hunted terrestrial game and gathered nuts, acorns, and berries. California groups also were diverse in their political organization with bands, tribes, villages, and on the resource-rich coasts, large chiefdoms, such as the Chumash, Pomo and Salinan. Trade, intermarriage, and military alliances fostered many social and economic relationships among the diverse groups. A book of national types and costumes from the early 19th century

EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from a rare and intriguing book of national types and costumes from the early 19th century, showcases the diverse and rich cultural heritage of the California region's indigenous inhabitants. California was home to over 70 distinct groups, each with unique traditions, languages, and ways of life. Large, settled populations along the coast lived off the bountiful resources of the sea, hunting sea mammals, fishing for salmon, and gathering shellfish. In contrast, groups in the interior relied on hunting terrestrial game and gathering nuts, acorns, and berries. The political organization of these California groups was equally diverse, ranging from bands and tribes to villages and, on the resource-rich coasts, large chiefdoms such as the Chumash, Pomo, and Salinan. Trade, intermarriage, and military alliances fostered many social and economic relationships among the diverse groups. This photograph offers a glimpse into the traditional outfits and costumes of these indigenous Californians, showcasing the intricate designs and materials that reflect their deep connection to the land and its resources. The clothing, made from natural fibers and adorned with beads, feathers, and other natural materials, is a testament to the creativity and resourcefulness of these early Californian communities. As we admire this image, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural diversity of the California region's indigenous peoples, whose legacy continues to shape the state's identity today.
