| The early people who wandered into the Northern California region were in
awe of their discovery. The Hokan and the Penutian people looked around and
saw deer, elk, bear, rabbits and squirrels. There were marshes and lakes
teaming with wild birds and fish and turtles. There were wild vegetables,
delicious wild fruits, acorns and other nuts. The word plentiful hardly
describes it. Food was available in abundance.
Think as if you are a hunter in this tribe. You are surrounded by an
abundance of wildlife, why is this an advantage or disadvantage for your
tribe? Would you stay where you are or would you move? Why?
Think about these questions as you research this amazing tribe and keep your
own room 25 tribe in mind as you decide what are some of the decisions we
make each day in class, and how do they help the whole tribe? | |
