Native American Tribes In California
Indigenous peoples of California, commonly known as Indigenous Californians or Native Californians, are a diverse group of nations and peoples that are indigenous to the geographic area within the current boundaries of California before and after European colonization. There are currently 109 federally recognized tribes in the state and over forty self-identified tribes or tribal bands that have applied for federal recognition. California has the second-largest Native American population in the United States. Most tribes practiced forest gardening or permaculture and controlled burning to ensure the availability of food and medicinal plants as well as ecosystem balance. Archeological sites indicate human occupation of California for thousands of years. European settlers began exploring their homelands in the late 18th century. This began with the arrival of Spanish soldiers and missionaries who established Franciscan missions that instituted an immense rate of death and c ...

Del Norte Triplicate
The ''Del Norte Triplicate'' is an American paid newspaper which serves the city of Crescent City and surrounding Del Norte County. It is published weekly on Fridays. History The ''Del Norte Daily Triplicate'' traces its roots back to 1879, starting as the ''Del Norte Record''. The Record was established by J. E. Eldredge, edited by George Leon, and was the official paper of Del Norte County. The name ''Del Norte Daily Triplicate'' comes from the names of three papers that united in 1912—the Coast Times, Del Norte Record, and Crescent City News. The term comes not from the term used for carbon copies, but from the original Latin ''triplicare'', meaning "a third thing corresponding to others of the same kind." In 1913, W.H. McMaster left the Palladium and became editor and manager of the ''Del Norte Triplicate''. John A. Juza purchased the ''Triplicate'' in December 1922, updating the press to a linotype machine. Prior to joining the ''Triplicate'', Juza had been publisher o ...
