Project Homeland › Nations

Winnemem Wintu Tribe (Nonfederally Recognized Indian Group)

Lands ceded to the United States by treaty, law or executive order, 1851, as Charles C. Royce recorded them in 1899 — 25,947 km² in 2 cessions across California.

A cession records when the United States took title — not the full extent of a homeland, and much land was taken without any treaty. The link between each cession and present-day nations is the one the U.S. Forest Service and the National NAGPRA Program’s dataset records; the nation’s own account comes first.

Named in the treaties as: Noe-ma-noe-ma · Noi-me-noi-me · Y-lac-ca
