In prehistoric California, the exchange of ideas and materials between different groups was largely driven by intergroup trade, facilitating not only the spread of objects but also the diffusion of knowledge across vast regions. Archaeologists rely on evidence from these trading networks to understand the cultural exchanges and the crafting techniques used by ancient peoples. The three papers presented in this volume, originally published in limited editions by the University of California Archaeological Survey in 1961 and 1962, offer valuable insights into these prehistoric economies. Now out of print, these reports have been reassembled due to significant public interest, shedding light on various aspects of aboriginal California Indian culture and the trade systems that shaped it.
