IMPORTANT - Department of Interior Trustee Search List the Dept. of Interior has "lost" millions in Indian monies - to try and settle some of this, they are trying to contact the people on this list!

see where the U.S. Government spends your money... while anthropologists and scientists scour Costanoan Territory for the fabled dumpsite of the Ohlone, find a REAL superfund site near you

Indigenous Peoples are under assault all over the planet... global human diversity is endangered by social and economic pressures, overpopulation, and a spiritual vacuum... The menu below has links to this behavior from all over the planet...OUR planet. Please email us links to web resources on this matter.

UCSF Students and Professors visiting Indian Canyon late in September, 2004. Many, many students and teachers are welcomed to Indian Canyon on a continuing basis going back a decade. If your class would like to visit the canyon please contact us via our email link at the top of this page. FYI, and to save me from repeating this bit of cultural information again and again... it is traditional for anyone meeting a distinguished or elder Native American to make a small present of tobacco and shaking their hand when meeting them for the first time. - thanks, Russ NEW! villages os San Juan Bautistaa 1790 list of San Juan Bautista inductee home villages - 50k .jpg imageMonterey Bay see the Monterey Bay as it appeared the day of First Contact...
