Native American Language
Native Americans Today
What's new on our site today!
As a complement to our Eel River language information, here is our collection of indexed links
about the Eel River tribe and their society. In addition to the general links about North Straits
Indian culture on this page, please see our specific pages on the
Wailaki,
Lassik,
Sinkyone, and
Nongatl tribes.
Please note that Eel River Athapaskans and other
American Indians are living people with a present and a future as well as a past. Eel River history is interesting and
important, but the Eel River Indians are still here today, too, and we try to feature modern writers as well as traditional
folklore, contemporary art as well as museum pieces, and issues and struggles of today as well as the tragedies
of yesterday. Suggestions for new links are always welcome.
