A Teacher's Guide to Historical and Contemporary Kumeyaay Culture
(A Supplemental Resource for Third and Fourth Grade Teachers)
From the Introduction: "The first version
of this project was produced as part of a master’s thesis at San Diego
State University. Geralyn Hoffman completed her B.A. in Anthropology and
Archaeology at Boston University and her M.A. in Anthropology at San
Diego State University--later on becoming the Education Coordinator at
the San Diego Museum of Man. Lynn Gamble is Associate Professor and
Director of the Collections Management Program in the Department of
Anthropology at San Diego State University. Her recent publications have
focused on a wide range of topics, including the origin of the plank
canoe in the New World, the emergence of a ranked society among the
Chumash Indians, trading activities in Southern California, adaptations
to paleoclimatic change, and the challenges surrounding site
preservation in the United States. Her recent research entails working
with the Kumeyaay on both sides of the border in the interpretation of
cultural landscapes and material culture.
This guide was published with
the generous support of the Campo Kumeyaay Nation, the Barona Band of
Mission Indians, the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation, the Southwest
Consortium for Environmental Research and Policy, and the Institute for
Regional Studies of the Californias."
