Chemehuevi Indians of Southern California

This is the third in a series of brochures for the general public published by the Malki Museum, Inc. on the Indians of Southern California.Although the Chemehuevi Indians are the only local tribe to migrate into California during the period of recorded history, little is known about them. This is probably due to the fact that most of the Chemehuevi have been absorbed by the other Shoshonean groups who arrived earlier.
