Yosemite Miwok or Paiute baskets?
Yosemite Indian Field Days - 1925. Note the tribal identification of the Yosemite Indian basket makers. They are not Miwoks, but Mono Paiutes from Mono County. From Left to Right: Tina Charlie, Carrie Bethel, Alice Wilson, Leanna Tom and Maggie "Taboose" Howard - Mono Indians with Chief Ranger Townsley. Most of the winners of the Yosemite basket making contests were Paiutes, not Miwoks.
