Trails through the Landscape of the Mojave Desert: The Salt Song Trail from Avi Nava<br />

• Symposium 13 (La Sierra); Saturday, 9:30 AM<br />

The Salt Song Trail Project is a collaboration between The Storyscape Project of The Cultural<br />

Conservancy (www.nativeland.org), a non-profit indigenous rights organization, and The Salt<br />

Song Trail Project, Vivienne Jake (Kaibab Paiute) and Matthew Leivas, Sr. (Chemehuevi). The<br />

purpose of the project is to revitalize the sacred Salt Songs of the Nuwivi (Southern Paiute)<br />

people used in memorial ceremonies and to protect sacred areas and ancestral lands. The songs<br />

describe the physical, spiritual and cultural landscape of the Nuwuvi. We have recorded the song<br />

cycle, produced two films and a cultural map of the Salt Song Trail<br />

Cultural Transmission, Style, and Continuous Variation Among North Central Sierra<br />

Nevada Projectile Points<br />

• General Session 2 (De Anza South); Friday, 10:45 AM<br />

Changes in the <strong>for</strong>m of material culture over time and space are directly linked to changes in the<br />

context of cultural transmission. This implies change in the general social context. Continuous<br />

morphological variation in a sample of 673 projectile points from 30 sites both east and west of<br />

the Sierra crest is used to examine style in north central Sierra Nevada prehistory. Distinct<br />

trends in continuous variation are compared to archaeological contexts associated with C14 dates<br />

and obsidian hydration readings. Theories of style and cultural transmission facilitate<br />

interpretation of these patterns and provide insight into social changes and longstanding<br />

traditions.
