Indian Culture (Owens Valley Paiute, Tubatulabal, Western Mono, Yokuts) Trade
Owens Valley people traded with the Western Mono and Tubatulabal and occasionally went as far as the Yokuts. They
carried, according to their own accounts, pinenuts, larvae of flies (Ephydra hians Say.) breeding in the salt
lake, caterpillars (Coloradia pandora Blake), from the mountains, baskets, red and white paint, and salt. To
this list, the western people add tanned deerskins. In exchange they received shell bead money, acorns,
manzanita and sow berries, and elderberries, according to their own accounts, while according to the
western people they also received baskets and rabbit skin blankets. (Steward, 1933:259-260; Gayton, 1930:59.) The
more important trans-Sierran routes will be found in Steward, 1933, map 2, and described on pp. 329-330. This
includes trails passing through the present Sequoia National Park.
