Hupa

The Hupa are a Native American people of northwestern California, who migrated to the area around 1000. The Hupa language belongs to the Athabaskan family. Traditionally, they relied on salmon fishing, acorns and basketry. Most Hupa are enrolled in the federally recognized Hoopa Valley Tribe, whose reservation encompasses their ancestral homeland. This photograph, taken around 1923 by Edward S. Curtis and titled "A Smoky Day at the Sugar Bowl", shows a Hupa man standing on a rock in the middle of the Trinity River and holding a fishing spear. The photograph was published in Curtis's ethnographic series The North American Indian in 1924.
