Conversations

Here’s a selection of the conversations happening on these photos & illustrations:

John Peabody Harrington (1884-1961) and Chief Wi'ishi of Mission Indians, California

from Smithsonian Institution

• In Memoriam: budderflyman said:

  Was this Native American the son of Ishi, the last "wild" California Native American? And why were they called "Mission Indians"? That is not a tribal name. Ishi was thought for years to be the last of the Yana people, Yahi tribe. "Ishi" means "man" in Yana. However, later research at the Univ of California, Berkeley, showed he was probably only half Yahi.
