The Pit River Tribe, based in northeastern California along the Pit River, comprises eleven autonomous bands, primarily the Achumawi (or Achomawi) and Atsugewi. Their name comes from a hunting technique involving pit traps for deer, reflecting their deep connection to the land. Their basketry tradition, like that of many California Native groups, predates European contact and persisted through immense cultural disruption. Pit River baskets stand out for their twined construction
