The group was called the Great Basin
The native people of the Great Basin knew the land intimately and understood the natural cycles. Small family groups hunted and gathered, pattering their lives to take advantage of the diverse and abundant resources. The land provided all their nutritional needs as well as materials for clothing and shelter. These people hunted small and large animals, such as jackrabbits, antelope, and waterfowl; gathered pine nuts and berries; and dug roots and tubers. They harvested enough food during summer to carrying them throughout winter.
