Excerpt from Functional Families of the Patwin The Wintun Indians of northern California are a linguistic group formerly occupying most of the western drainage of the Sacramento valley. In native terminology, the name Wintun applies only to the Indians of the northern half of what ethnologists call Wintun terri tory. The people of the southern half speak of themselves as Patwin. The whole Wintun area in the larger sense has been divided into four major dialectic provinces: the Northern, Central, Southeastern, and Southwestern.1 This paper is descriptive only of that portion of the Patwin who occupied a narrow strip of territory bordering the west bank of the Sacramento river, from Princeton in Colusa county south ward to a point somewhat below the city of Colusa. These Indians belonged to the Central and Southeastern Wintun dialectic provinces. The material included in this paper was collected during two visits to a Patwin rancheria immediately north of the city of Colusa. Those visits were made in 1917 and 1919, under the direction of the Depart ment of Anthropology of the University of California.
