Thier total population consisted of around eleven thousand people and their native language is Utian. Miwok means people in the Utian dialect. The tribes religious preferences were part of Shamanism.

...Wendigo rules the forest. They worship all of these creatures for fear if they do not they will be hunted by day and night. They believe if you help throughout the village that when you die you will live in the stars but if you are bad and kill, steal and destroy that you will have a giant boulder tied around your foot and you will be thrown into the ocean and have the feeling of constantly drowning. Economy: The Santu people use basic trading for their economy they do not believe in currency because they believe it has no value. The most valuable tradable items is food and cattle. Family: All Santu people have large families. Many have at least five children and at most twenty.

...PARADISE BEYOND THE BEATEN TRACK Our family took a long-overdue vacation to the northern areas last June. It was a well-planned trip with members of four families getting together for a chill-out. We congregated at Islamabad and started on our “voyage of discovery” early the next morning. To allow all of us to enjoy to the full we had hired a coaster driven by a very seasoned young driver who is familiar with the area. Our route took us from Islamabad to Abbotabad to Mansehra to Balakot to Kaghan to Naran to Shogran to Lalezar to Nathiagali to Ayubia to Islamabad & back to Lahore. The trip from Islamabad to Abbotabad was quite good. A good place for a short stopover in Abbotabad for refreshments & freshening up is Lahore Chatkhara Restaurant where the food & snacks are quite good. The tea is exceptionally good. No trip is complete without a puncture or two. Our coaster had one near the restaurant here. So we lost about half an hour in the process of changing the tyres and repairing the punctured one. Mansehra is a sleepy little town; Balakot was very neat and well arranged before the earthquake. The recently planted tea bushes above the road created a very pleasing sight. Kaghan is another place worth spending a day in. Little restaurants line the road and tracks meander down to the silvery Kunhar River rushing past the town. We had piping hot Pakoras and tea on our way back, here. The light drizzle made them even more enjoyable. The huge walnut trees looked majestic...

...History Of Forest Hill Community Prepared by George Cottle, Sr. Location Forest Hill Community is situated on the waters of Bradshaw and Spruce Run. Starting at A. L. Campbell's, on Greenbrier River, three miles from Forest Hill and running to J. T. Campbell's, on a line from there including P. M. Garrison's; thence South West to and including W. L. Redmond's; thence North to and including C. G. Ramsey's; and thence Northeast by J. S. Canterberry's and including him to the starting point; it includes twenty-five square miles. It is inhabited by sixty-six families with a population of four hundred. Points of Interest One of the natural wonders of this community is situated on the farm of P. M. Foster, and is known as the "Seven Wonders". This is an immense rock in the shape of an inverted pyramid. It is about thirty feet tall, four by six feet at the base, and about twenty by thirty feet at the top. Tradition tells how it received its name. It is said that a man upon viewing this Wonder, wondered six times how it stood up and one time if it was supported by an oak which grew by the side of the rock. He said, "You are surely a "Seven Wonders". This rock is covered with names and dates. Some of them are more than a hundred years old. Another natural wonder of Forest Hill Community, is known as the "Devil's Den". This is situated on the line between J. H. Rogers and J. T. Canterberry's, and consists of a huge wash basin, writing desk, and a seat. This wonder is of sand stone...

...Barack Obama Dreams from My Father “For we are strangers before them, and sojourners, as were all our fathers. 1 CHRONICLES 29:15 PREFACE TO THE 2004 EDITION A LMOST A DECADE HAS passed since this book was first published. As I mention in the original introduction, the opportunity to write the book came while I was in law school, the result of my election as the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review. In the wake of some modest publicity, I received an advance from a publisher and went to work with the belief that the story of my family, and my efforts to understand that story, might speak in some way to the fissures of race that have characterized the American experience, as well as the fluid state of identitythe leaps through time, the collision of cultures-that mark our modern life. Like most first-time authors, I was filled with hope and despair upon the book’s publication-hope that the book might succeed beyond my youthful dreams, despair that I had failed to say anything worth saying. The reality fell somewhere in between. The reviews were mildly favorable. People actually showed up at the readings my publisher arranged. The sales were underwhelming. And, after a few months, I went on with the business of my life, certain that my career as an author would be short-lived, but glad to have survived the process with my dignity more or less intact. I had little time for reflection over the next ten years. I ran a voter registration project in...

...CORDILLERA ADMINISTRATIVE REGION I. Brief History Many theories have been postulated to account for the origin of the people inhabiting the mountain regions of the Philippines. The Land Bridge Theory claims that the Philippines was part of the Southern Asia Mainland and the Northern Luzon maintain tribes that came through these bridges during the last glacial period between 1200 and 1500 B.C. Contradictory to these assumptions is the Wave Migration Theory, which occurred thousands of years after the disappearance of the land bridges in 3,000-4,000 B.C. The theory states that groups of migrants came by boat from the neighboring lands during the Neolithic period. The Neolithic culture, which they brought with them, is still evident in the rice terraces, cloth weaving and the use of iron implements. Scholars differ in their contentions of the mountain people’s ancestors, however, a prominent number supports the contention that the ancestors of the mountain people came from the South East Asia Mainland. In the process of settling down, the early inhabitants became geographically isolated from one another. The long period of isolation and adaptation to the environment gave rise to variations of culture. When the Spaniards came to the Philippines, they were able to set foot in the Cordilleras as early as 1608 but with minimal influence. They were able to establish commandancias in Benguet, Ifugao and Kalinga-Apayao but their stay did not last long enough to pacify...
