Fourteen Basketry Designs of the Interior Salish
A plate of Salish basketry designs, captioned in the 1917 source as made by the Lower Thompson River and Lillooet tribes, from Katharine Berry Judson's Myths and Legends of British North America. The drawings reproduce design studies from the Memoirs of the American Museum of Natural History, where James Teit and Franz Boas recorded the names and meanings weavers gave to their patterns. These Nlaka'pamux and St'at'imc designs belong to the wider Interior Salish design world shared with Secwepemc weavers.
