Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. No Jacket. Douglas Andrews (illustrator). POMO INDIANS OF CALIFORNIA AND THEIR NEIGHBORS. The Pomos were not actually a tribe in the true sense, but a group of tribelets speaking similar languages and dialects. As with most California Indians, their culture has been misunderstood. Their society had some quite complex and beautiful elements, like an elaborate counting system. Their money was manufactured with exquisite care. The Pomo Indians probably made the finest feathered basket-work ever produced by man, which today have become increasingly rare collector's items, in addition to very beautiful and complicated dance costumes. The smashing of the Pomos' culture by conquest was very complete. Fortunately the old Indian spirit is returning. We need to encourage their pride and self-respect as well as restore the beautiful elements of their culture that make them distinctive. A colorful 17 x 22" map shows the native country as it was before the white man came. Also the old villages, trails and tribal divisions and illustrations help us understand these interesting people and their history.
