Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to the culture of the Eastern Mono, a Native American group from central California who speak a language belonging to the Numic group of the Uto-Aztecan family and are related to Northern Paiute. The Eastern Mono, along with Owens Valley Native communities across the crest, are similar to their neighbors from the Great Basin. Historically the Eastern and Western Mono traded with one another.
