Cuñeil. A tribe, evidently Yuman, described by Garcés in 1775-76 (Diary, 444, 450, 1900) as inhabiting the territory between San Diego, southern California and the mouth of the Rio Colorado.  They were friendly with the Cocopa.  From their habitat and the similarity in their names they would seem to be identical with the Comeya, but Garcés mentions the latter, under the name Quemayá as if distinct.  On the map of Father Pedro Font (1777), who was a companion of Father Garcés, and Cuñeil are located in northern Lower California, between lat 31º and 32º. According to Gatschet the name Kunyil or Knyeyil, in the Comey dialect signifies "all men", "people".

Dakubetede. A group of Athapascan villages formerly on Applegate creek, Oregon.  The inhabitants spoke a dialect practically identical with that employed by the Taltushtuntede who lived on Gallice Creek not far from them.  They were intermarried with the Shasta, who, with the Takilman, were their neighbors.  With other insurgent bands they were removed to the Siletz reservation in 1856.

Diegueños. A collective name, probably in part synonymous with Comeya, applied by the Spaniards to Indians of the Yuman stock who formerly lived in and around San Diego, in California, whence the term; it included representatives of many tribes and has no proper ethic significance; never the less it is a firmly established name and is there accepted to include the tribes formerly living about San Diego and extending south to about lat 31º 30.  a few Degueños still live in the neighborhood of San Diego,  There are about 400 Indians included under this name attached to the Mission agency of California, but they are now officially recognized as part of the "Mission Indians." The rancherias formerly occupied by the Diegueños, so far as known, are; Abascal, Awhut, Cajon, Camajal, Campo, Capitan Grande, Cenyowpreskel(?), Cojuat, Coquilt, Corral, Cosoy, Cuyamaca, Ekquall, Focomae, Guieymura, Hasoomale, Hassasei, Hataam, Hawai, Honwee Vallecito, Icayme, Inomassi, Inyaha, Kwalwhut, Laguna, La unta, Lorenzo, Mactati, Maramoydos, Mataguay, Matamo, Matironn, Mattawottis, Melejo, Mesa Chiquita, Mesa Grande, Meti, Nellmole, Nipaguay, Otai, Otat, Pocol, Pickaway, San Felipe, San José, Lan Luis, Santa Isable, Siquan, Suahpi, Tachlay, Thwine, Tapanque, Toowed, Valle de las Viejas, Wahti, Xamacha, Xana and Yacum.  The Conejos, the Kiliwi and the Coyotes are mentioned as former Diegueño bands.

Huchnom. A division of the Yuki of northern California, speaking a dialect divergent from that of the Round valley Indians.  They lived on South Eel river above its confluence with the middle fork of the Eel river, or in adjacent territories, and on the headwaters of Russian River in upper Potter valley. To the north of them were the Witukomnom Yuki, to the east the Wintun and on the other sides were Pomo tries.  The Pomo call them Tatu, the whites Redwoods, from Redwood Creek.

Juaneño. A Shoshonean division on the California coast, named from San Juan Capistrano mission, at which they were principally gathered, extending north to Alisos Carek and south to a point between San Onofre and Las flores Creeks.  Their language forms one group with those of the Luiseños, Kawia and Aguas Calientes.  According to Ames (Pep. Missions Indias., 5, 1837) there were only 40 individuals in the neighborhood in 1873; of these most are now dead and the remainder scattered.

Kato. A Kuneste tribe or band formerly living in Cahto and Long valleys, Mendocino County, California.  These were probably the people mentioned by McKee as occupying the second large valley of Eel River, numbering about 500 in 1851, and differing in language from the Pomo, a fact which has long been lost sight of.  Powers divides them into Kai Pomo, Kastel Pomo, and Kato Pomo, and gives a Kulanapan vocabulary.  They have recently been found to belong to the Athapascan stock and closely related to the Wailaki, although they resemble the Pomo in culture.

Kawaiisu. The most westerly subdivision of the Ute-Chemehuevi linguistic division of the Shoshonean family.  They occupy an isolated area on both sides of the Tehachapi mountains, California, but particularly the west side around Piaute mountains and the valleys of Walker basin in Caliente and Kelso Creeks as far south as Tehachapi.

Konomihu. A subsidiary tribe of the Shasta, living at the forks of Salmon River, Siskiyou County, California, extending 7 miles up the south fork and 5 miles up the north fork.  Their language is very divergent from that of the main body of Shasta.

Koyeti. A Yokuts tribe formerly living in south central California, in the vicinity of Tule river and southward.  Mentioned in 1852 as friendly tribe on Paint (White) creek, and described as possessing unusual courage and intelligence.  They are entirely extinct.

Mattole (Wishosk name) An Athapascan tribe whose principal settlements were along Bear and Mattole Rivers, California.  They resisted the white race more vigorously than the natives of this region generally did and suffered practical extermination in return.  They were gathered on a reservation near C. Mendocino for a time and some of them were afterward taken to Hupa Valley reservation.  A few still live in their old territory.  They differ somewhat from their Athapascan neighbors in language and culture; they burn the dead; the men tattoo a distinctive mark on the forehead, but in other respects they are similar to the Hupa.

Miwok ('man") One of the two divisions of the Moquelumnan family in central California, the other being the Olamentke.  With a small exception in the west the Miwok occupied territory bounded on the north by Cosumnes River, on the east by the ridge of the Sierra Nevada, on the south by Fresno creek, and on the west by San Joaquin River.  The exception on the west is a narrow strip of land on the east bank of the San Joaquin, occupied by Yokuts Indians, beginning at the Tuolumne and extending northward to a point not far from the place where the San Joaquin bends to the west.  The Miwok are said by Powers to be the largest "nation" in California, and a man of any of their tribes or settlements may travel form the Cosumnes to the Fresno and make himself understood without difficulty, so uniform is their language.

Mono A general term applied to the Shoshonean tribes of south east California by their neighbors on the west.  The origin and meaning of the name are obscure, its identity with the Spanish mono 'monkey" and its similarity, at least in certain dialects, to the Yokuts word for 'fly' (monai, etc.) are probably only coincidences. For subdivisions see Mono-Paviotso.

Kawia. A Yokuts tribe formerly living on the edge of the plains oil the north side of Kaweah river, California, but now extinct. They were hostile to the American settlers. By agreement of May 13, 1851 (which was not confirmed), a reserve was set aside for this and, other tribes between Kawea and Chowchilla rivers, California, which at the same time ceded their unreserved lands. This tribe is to be distinguished from the Kawia (Coahuila, Cahuillo, etc.) a Shoshonean tribe in Riverside County, California.

Patwin ('man,' 'person'). A name adopted by Powers to designate a division of the Copehan family. They occupied the area extending from Stony creek, Colusa County, to Suisun Bay, Solano County, California, and from Sacramento river to the boundary of the Kulanapan family on the west, but excluding the so-called Coyote Valley Indians on the headwaters of Putah creek in the south part of Lake County, determined by Barrett to be Moquelumnan and not Copehan. The dialects of this division differ considerably from those of the Wintun. Powers believed the Patwin were once very numerous. The manners and customs of the tribes in the interior and on the mountains differed greatly from those near the shore. On the plains and in the valleys in building a dwelling they excavated the soil for about 2 feet, banked up enough earth to keep out the water, and threw the remainder on the roof in a dome. In the mountains, where wood was more abundant and rain more frequent, no roofing of earth was used. In war the Patwin used bows and arrows and flint-pointed spears; no scalps were taken, but the victors are said often to have decapitated the most beautiful maiden they captured. They had a ceremony for "raising evil spirits" and dances to celebrate a good harvest of acorns or a successful catch of fish. The dead were usually buried, though cremation was practiced to some extent by some of the tribes.

Watok. Mentioned as a Yokuts (Mariposan) or a Shoshonean tribe in south central California, probably on or near Kings river. The Wat-tokes are mentioned in 1857 as high up on Kings river, and in 1861 as on Fresno Reservation.
