INDIAN BASKETS
Hat Greek Tribe Made Excellent
Ones-Some Still Do.

Interesting research is being con-
Quoted by members of the National
Park Service staff on the basketry of
the Hat Creek Indians.
Baskets made by the Hat Creeks of
past generations were of excellent
workmanship. This art is probably
more highly developed than any other
practiced by the tribe. Most of the
baskets were for practical use-burden
baskets, or cooking utensils. Some,
however, were made for the sole pur-
pose Of burial ornamentation.
4 few Of the older Indians are still
making good baskets.
