NATIVE AMERICAN RESEARCH California Indians Portal

Webmaster's Forward:
I am beginning this online Native American research guide web ring portal to the top Native American web sites for credible information about the real Native Californians in a personal journey to better understand their indigenous North American history and culture; specifically the aboriginal tribal groups of Alta California, Southern California, southwestern Arizona, and the Mexican Indian tribes of Baja California, Baja Norte, of northwest Mexico; to compile an online village indigenous research center, a NATIVE WEB RING of the best websites to learn about the southwest Native American Indians of the United States of America, West Coast, USA.
CALIFORNIA currently has the second largest Native American population in the United States, including over 100 federally-recognized Indian tribes.
In 1769 the first Spanish European immigrants settled in California in what became Old Town, San Diego, Mission Presidio.
In 1845 the California Indian population was estimated to have been 150,000 strong.
In 1848, at the end of the Mexican-American War, Indians in California out numbered whites in California by 10 to one.
By 1855, the California Indian population had been reduced to 50,000.
By 1900, less than 16,000 Indians in California had survived the onslaught of invading white immigrants — some 134,000 California Indian lives were lost during this 55-year period AFTER the U.S. Government took control of California.
