The Coastal Miwok Life By: Beatriz Barras

This is a coyote The Miwok

spiritThis is a kotcha This is one of the Coast Miwoks’ houses

These two supplies are used to mash and grind foodThe bowl is called a mortar and the long rock is called a pestleThis is a large amount of land that the Miwoks owned way back in their time ; a long time ago

This is what the Coastal Miwoks would wear when they would dance

This is a basket , woven very tightly together by the Coastal Miwok Strong enough to hold water

This is a rock used by the Coastal Miwok to make tools

What you see here is wolf fur hung up on a kotcha

These are shells The Coastal Miwoks would shape them , drill holes in them and then use them as money

What you see here are tons of baskets made out of tule and other materials

These are acorns The Coastal Miwoks would use them as food

This basket was woven with a design on it

This is an arrow head The Coastal Miwoks would use them as weapons
