Bay Miwok people
The Bay Miwok were a cultural and linguistic group of Miwok, a Native American people in Northern California who lived in Contra Costa County. They joined the Franciscan mission system during the early nineteenth century, suffered a devastating population decline, and lost their language as they intermarried with other native California ethnic groups and learned the Spanish language.
The Bay Miwok were not recognized by modern anthropologists or linguists until the mid-twentieth century. In fact, Alfred L. Kroeber, father of California anthropology, who knew of one of their constituent local groups, the Saklan (Saclan), from nineteenth-century manuscript sources, presumed that they spoke an Ohlone (aka Costanoan) language.〔Kroeber 1925:463〕
In 1955 linguist Madison Beeler recognized an 1821 vocabulary taken from a Saclan man at Mission San Francisco as representative of a Miwok language.〔Beeler 1955, 1959〕 The language was christened Bay Miwok and its territorial extent was rediscovered during the 1960s (see ''Landholding Groups or Local Tribes'' section below).
==Culture==
The Bay Miwok lived by hunting and gathering, and lived in small bands without centralized political authority. They spoke ''Bay Miwok'' also known as ''Saclan''. They were skilled at basketry.
