- Abstract
In the fall of 2013, Mendocino National Forest archaeologists, Yuki tribal members, local landowners, and volunteers reexamined archaeological sites along the Black Butte River in northeastern Mendocino County, many of which had not been visited since their original recording in 1966. The intent was to verify site locations and record current conditions at numerous housepit villages, some with ethnographic names. This dynamic 20-mi. span of river was home to the Huititno 'm division of the Yuki. Both previously recorded resources and newly identified sites were located as the result of this study, demonstrating site patterns challenging previously held settlement models. The project's success was largely due to collaboration with landowners and local tribes.
