Abstract
"The Sacramento Valley was by its natural products an Indian Paradise. In abounded in food supplies. Game and fish and supplies for their domestics were abundant and easy of access. For a house they scooped out the dirt about 18 inches deep in a circular form; made a frame work of logs and poles about three feet high on the outer rim, and eight in the center; cone shaped with a hole at the peak; covered the frame with tule and that with the dirt, with a hole about two by three feet for a door. They were warm, dry and well perfumed, after a way peculiarly their own."
