Known for her \"friendship\" baskets, this particular example is among the most figurative of the bottleneck form featuring 29 human figures in three rows, with three alternating rattlesnake bands. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBaskets such as this were often used in the \"rattlesnake ceremony\". A rattlesnake was put into the basket, and sung to by the people. The song was to instruct the rattlesnake that the Yokuts were good and friendly people, and that it was unwise for the snake to bite the people. It was believed that the snake bite was an indicator to \"the Gods of the Underworld\" that the person bit was a \"bad\" person, and that the mark encouraged the God to make that person sick or die.... hence, the snake lied about the person. The ceremony is to change the way the snake feels about people. After the ceremony, the snake is released and told to not tell lies, and to spread the news that the Yokuts are good people to the other snakes. Sometimes the baskets also serve as admonitions, with images of dead (cut) snakes, ants (which can swam a snake), flies (which eat dead snakes), deer hoof motif (deer stomp snakes) and quail feathers (quail is the Judge of fair play in the Yokuts mythology).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45877093793957,"sku":"1100-01","price":85000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/1100-01p_cd4153f8-077a-4f20-8223-203d4fe81cf6.jpg?v=1759425200"},{"product_id":"1293-01-mono-indian-bottleneck-basket","title":"Mono Indian Bottleneck Basket","description":"\u003cp\u003eca 1890\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3.5\" x 9.25\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery fine weave with flat shoulders and short neck.

Shasta; major rivers including the Pit and McCloud rivers. East of the Cascades are the Modoc Plateau, a volcanic region drained by The Hat Creek and Fall Rivers in the southern part, and The Great Basin, a dry scrub land east of the Warner Mountains, which extends into Nevada. The tribes of this region we focus on are the Pit River (Achomawi), Hat Creek (Atsugewi), Wintu, Modoc and Klamath (although of Southern Oregon, their basketry is so similar to the Modoc we include them in this section).

All used open and closed twining and their baskets are generally taller and less complex in pattern than the NW tribes baskets. The Atsugewi used more redbud in their overlay than the Achomawi, and the Wintu used alder dyed fern for their red overlay (which was relatively rarely used). The Atsugewi often used latice twining on the base, unlike the Achomawi. Shasta baskets are hard to differentiate from the other groups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Northern California tribes used Bear Grass (white) and maidenhair fern stem (black) in their overlay.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45877820653733,"sku":"240408-06","price":850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/s725348264778838518_p12156_i18_w642.jpg?v=1757347614"},{"product_id":"240408-04-pit-river-basket-bowl","title":"Pit River Basket Bowl","description":"\u003cp\u003eLate 19th Century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6.25\" H x 10.5\" D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fine open bowl form with climbing motif.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent Overall Condition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45877821997221,"sku":"240408-04","price":750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/s725348264778838518_p12182_i1_w1000.jpg?v=1757347613"},{"product_id":"240408-03-large-pit-river-basket-bowl","title":"Large Pit River Basket Bowl","description":"\u003cp\u003eLate 19th Century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5.25\" H x 9.5\"D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHas wear as pictured, particularly the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA larger and firm basket without splits in the body.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45877846605989,"sku":"240408-03","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/s725348264778838518_p12529_i8_w1000.jpg?v=1757347613"},{"product_id":"240713-01-chumash-lidded-treasure-basket","title":"Chumash Lidded Treasure Basket","description":"\u003cp\u003eMid to Late 18th century\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8.5\" x 11\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Coiled of natural and dyed juncus, sumac.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e With some stitch loss typical of age.
