Creator Stewart, Omer Call, 1908-1991
Description Omer C. Stewart discusses the characteristics that distinguish the Utes from other tribes in the Uto-Aztecan language family, such as the Paitue and Shoshone Indians. Stewart relates language origin to potential migration patterns, but ultimately claims that the Utes stayed in a narrow geographic region. Stewart discusses early Ute hunting-gathering and basket-making culture, early dwellings, life after contact with the Spanish, relations with various tribes, treaties made with the federal government, the transition to farming allotted land, etc
