Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
The article is a general account on the material culture of
the Klamath Lake and Modoc Indians. Basketry is the outstanding feature in this material
culture. Utensils, housing material, clothing and rafts are woven from various kinds of
reeds of the marshlands which are in the territory of these Indians. From the text of this
article it can not be seen which objects come from which of the two Indian
groups.
