Context of Prosper
Facing intense competition for acorns, California Indians combined their villages into chiefdoms and defended their territories. Chiefs conducted trade, diplomacy, war, and religious ceremonies. Along with other wild species, acorns enabled the Indians of California to prosper. As a Spanish friar arriving from Mexico in 1770 wrote, “This land exceeds all the preceding territory in fertility and abundance of things necessary for sustenance.”
