thence e. to Goose lake, thence n. to 

 lat. 44°, and thence w. to the Cascades. 

 The more permanent settlements of the 

 family were on the shores of Klamath 

 lakes, Tule lake, and Lost r., the remain- 

 der of the territory which they claimed 

 being hnnting ground. In i864 both 

 divisions of the family entered into a 

 treaty with the United States whereby 

 they cetled the greater jxirt of their lands 

 to the Government and were placed on 

 Klamath res. in Oregon. It was an at- 

 tempt on the part of the Modoc to return 

 to their former seat on the California 

 frontier that brought about the Modoc 

 war of 1872-73 (see Kinfjmash). The cli- 

 mate and productions of their country 

 were most favorable, edible roots and 

 berries were plentiful, and the region 

 abounded in game and fish. As a conse- 

 quence the tribes were fairly sedentary and 

 seem to have .made no extensive migra- 

 tions. They were not particularly warlike, 

 though the Modoc had frequent struggles 

 with the tribes to the s., and after the 

 coming of the whites resisted the aggres- 

 sions of the latter with persistence and 

 fierceness. 



Slavery seems to have been an insti- 

 tutiiJU of long standing, and the Modoc, 

 assisted by the Klamath, made, annual 

 raids on the Indians of Pit r. for the 

 capture of slaves, whom they either re- 

 tained for themselves or bartered with 

 the Chinook of Columbia r. The ha})ita- 

 tions were formerly of logs, covered with 

 mud and circular in shape, a type of 

 building which is still occasionally seen 

 on the reservation. The women were 

 noted as expert Ijasket weavers. No trace 

 of a clan or gentile system has been dis- 

 covered among them. The family organ- 

 ization is a loose one and inheritance is in 

 the male line. The language spoken by 

 the two divisions of the Lutuamian family 

 is ordinarily called Klamath, and while 

 there are dialectic differences between the 

 speech of the Klamath proper and the 

 Modoc, they are so slight that they may 

 be disregarded. The Lutuamian lan- 

 guage is apparently entirely independent, 

 though further study may disclose rela- 

 tionship with the Shahaptian. (l. f. )
