View comments (edit) Any idea what happended to the Yokuts? I was under the impression that the Southern Valley Yokuts were moved at first from (the ones in Kern county) to Fort Tejon and then later to the Tule Indian Reservation.

[edit] EB 1911 article on Yokuts

MARIPOSAN, or YOKUTS, a linguistic stock of North American Indians, including some 40 small tribes. Its former territory was in southern California, around Tulare lake. The Mari-posans were fishers and hunters. Their villages consisted of a single row of wedge-shaped huts, with an awning of brush along the front. In 1850 they numbered some 3000; in 1905 there were 154 on the Tule river reservation.

Thought I would post this here as it's related. Needs updating if possible. --FeanorStar7 02:44, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
