The California Natives have a long, and rich history dating back over 25 thousand years. From the Klamath tribe in the north, to the Mojave tribe in the southern desert, everywhere the eye turns, there are years worth of stories and past life.

Because of DNA evidence that shows a direct link, Historians believe that the California Indians are direct descendants of East Asian ethnic parties, such as the Mongolians, dating back 25-30 million years ago. The Indians migrated to this area over the frozen land bridge, Beringia, which connects Siberia and Alaska.

Between these people, there were 21 distinct languages, between 135 dialects, and 62 separate recognizable tribes. The life of the California Indian was very simple in just about ever aspect. The community mostly revolved around the Family. Men were the hunters, and providers for the family, while women would cook, clean, make clothes, weave baskets, and maintain food storage facilities.

Young boys were generally initiated into manhood through hunting/survival tests, or different societal ceremonies and tests based upon the tribes history. For most Indian tribes, divorce was completely and was, in some cases, a normal part of the native life. Tribe chiefs were mostly ceremonial and served just as figurehead leaders for rituals, initiations, ceremonies, banquets, ect.

Good or bad, every rock, plant, bird, and other animal has a spirit that is meant to be respected and taken care of. Rather than the Chief, the Shaman, or Medicine man, had the true Ceremonial and religious power of the tribe.
