		Recent studies of Kalapuyan linguistic diversity, together with oral histories, archaeological findings, and ethnobotanical advances indicate that the Willamette Valley had a polity of a dozen or more city states 500 years ago, and those city states had been developing in place for as much as 4,000 years.
		The Kalapuyans also possessed advanced agricultural techniques, processing centers for root, seed, fruit and fiber crops, central towns, road systems, a far-reaching trade system, territorial boundaries, land ownership systems, division of labor, burial mounds, and other indications of a much more populous and organized culture than early anthropologists gave them credit for.
		Second, the Kalapuyans used fire to manipulate the vegetation in the Willamette Valley and in the surrounding hills and mountains.

		Kalapuyan (also Kalapuya) is a small extinct language family of western Oregon, Willamette Valley consisting of only three languages.
		Kalapuyan is usually connected with the various Penutian proposals with Kalapuyan lying within an Oregon Penutian sub-group (along with Takelma, Siuslaw, and Coosan).
		Therefore, currently the Kalapuyan family is generally considered separate, but with promising connections to the Penutian hypothesis.

	The First People of Clackamas County, Oregon
		In the Clackamas County area, the people spoke two dialects of Kalapuyan and were divided into two main language divisions-- Ahantchuyuk (Santiam Kalapuya speakers) and the Atfilati (Tualatin Kalapuya speakers).
		Further inland in the region that would later become Clackamas County, the MOLALLAS held the upland valleys and western slopes of the Cascade Mountains.
		Compared to the Kalapuyans and the Chinooks, the Molalla lived in smaller bands and less substantial dwellings.

		Roughly 200 to 300 Kalapuyans claim they can trace their lineage back to Camafeema, more widely known as Chief Halo, headman of the Yonkalla-Kalapuya tribe.
		The Kalapuyans are members of the Komemma Cultural Protection Association, a group making efforts to reclaim its history and build a new future.
		Members of the group are trying to learn the Kalapuyan language, which has not been spoken in almost 100 years.

		Instead, cottonwoods, ash, alder, Douglas fir, grand fir, ponderosa pine and big-leaf maple lifted their arms to the sky, high above mats of trailing native flberry spread along the banks, among the douglas spirea, with its fuzzy, cone-shaped pink flowers, twinberry and snowberry, salmonberry, ninebark, wapato and native grasses.
		Fire was one of the major influences on the vegetation in the basin before the 1800s.
		But as the Kalapuyan tribes died out, the annual fires were lighted less and less.

		The edenic landscape as sketched by Warre overlooks the presence of the indigenous Kalapuyans and their impact on the landscape.
		The purpose behind this large-scale landscape management was to prevent the spread of dense forests in the valley, and thereby retain the open prairies and small oak stands that supported the plant and animal life crucial to the Kalapuyans’ seasonal round.

		Takelma has often considered to be in a Takelman (or Takelma-Kalapuyan) language family together with the Kalapuyan languages.
		However, there is much hopeful speculation that Takelma (along with Kalapuyan and other language groups) may be part of a proposed Penutian super-family.
		The fruits of this research will be available some time in the future.

		Whole bands perished so that Charles Wilkes, by 1842, estimated the entire Kalapuyan population including the Tualatins, to number 600 persons.
		Anxious to consolidate the Indians west of the Cascades, Indian Commissioners for Oregon negotiated another, this one at Dayton.
		In 1855, the Tualatins and the other Kalapuyan tribes signed the agreement, exchanging their last formal landholding in the valley for confinement at the Grand Ride Reservation southwest of McMinnville.

	"Vocabularies, Fractals, and Semiconductors" by Karl Young
		A few days before Christmas, 1996, I got the first of a number of e-messages from Kalapuyans who told me that they were not extinct and had no intention of becoming so.
		The women were listed simply as "squaw" on official documents, and the men had good reason not to identify themselves as Kalapuyan - then, as in the 1990s, they had no intention of becoming extinct.
		Kalapuyans may not have felt very much interest in quirky experimental poetry, but when these people went on-line, they found the book by looking for references to themselves.

		Independence and the surrounding area was originally occupied by the Kalapuyan Indians.
		The Kalapuyans were semi-nomadic hunters and gatherers who were attracted to the abundant food supply along the fertile shores of the Willamette River.(1) The river also served as a major transportation route for the natives.
		It was not until the advent of the Euro-Americans that permanent settlement of the area began.

		Oregon had about 16 indigenous languages, Alsea, Cayuse, Chinook, Clatskanie, Coos, Coquille, Kalapuyan, Klamath, Molalla, Nez Perce, Northern Paiute, Sahaptin, Shasta, Siuslaw, Takelma and Tillamook.
		Alsea, Cayuse, Chinook, Clatskanie, Kalapuyan, Molalla, Shasta, Siuslaw, Takelma, and Tillamook are all classified as being extinct.
		No information is provided on Northern Paiute or Sahaptin, and Coquille is estimated to be extinct.

	The Cedar Mill News - January 2004 - Atfalati - The Indians of Cedar Mill
		The Indians who resided in and around the Cedar Mill area called themselves the Atfalati although the settlers eventually called them Tualatin and some referred to them as “Wapato Lake Indians.” They spoke Tualatin, one of three languages of the Willamette Valley Kalapuyan group.
		By 1842 it was estimated the entire Kalapuyan population including the Tualatins to number 600 people.
		After many treaties made and broken by the US government, survivors were eventually moved to the Grand Ronde Reservation where the 1890 census numbered the Tualatins at 28.

	Oregon’s Mt. Hood Territory Past and Present
		Dependant on trade and a division of labor for survival, the Native people relied on the land and waterways in this region as food sources.
		Their salmon takes were so abundant that what they could not eat was used for trade with local Kalapuyan and Molallan Tribes.
		As the east was settled in the 1700s, disease brought on by inland trade prior to direct contact with Europeans wiped out all but 10 percent of what was a thriving Indian population.

		Over the years, Willamette has developed a significant collection of European, Asian, Native American, and historic and contemporary regional art, and in 1998 opened a new facility to showcase its growing art collection.
		Among the first objects to enter Willamette’s art collection were Native American baskets, given to the early Methodist missionaries by Clatsop Indians on the Oregon Coast and Kalapuyan Indians in the Willamette Valley.
		In the 1930s, the Native American collection was significantly enhanced with the addition of several hundred baskets from E.C. Cross and M.E. Polleski, two prominent Salem collectors at the turn of the century.

	Linguistics Research
		Almost every member of the department has done at least some research on languages from the Americas and many of our graduate students have also produced scholarly work that contributes to the study of these languages.
		Faculty and students have worked on languages of the Plains (Dakota), the territories (Dogrib), British Columbia (Salish, Wakashan, Haida, Tsimshian, Chinook Jargon), the Western U.S. (Salish, Kalapuyan), and Mexico (Mayan).
		The Phonetics Laboratory in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Victoria was established by Jean-Paul Vinay and has operated in its present location since 1971 under the successive direction of Henry Warkentyne, Craig Dickson and John Esling.

	Kalapuya Language and the Kalapuya Indian Tribe (Kalapuyan, Calapooya, Kalapooian, Luckiamute, Santiam, Yonkalla)
		The Kalapuyan languages are considered by most linguists to be part of the Penutian family of languages, possibly related most closely to Takelma.
		There were once three distinct Kalapuyan languages, Northern Kalapuya (Atfalati or Tualatin), Central Kalapuya (Santiam or Lakmayut), and Southern Kalapuya (Yoncalla).
		Unfortunately the distinction is moot now, as none of the Kalapuyan languages are still spoken.

	City of Albany, Oregon - Albany's History
		In 1853, residents of the east side of Albany persuaded the Territorial Legislature to change the name of Albany to 'Takenah'.
		This was a Kalapuyan word used to describe the deep pool where the Calapooia River meets the Willamette River.
		Some translated the word as "hole-in the ground." Many people felt this was not a proper name for a new and growing city, so in 1855 the Provisional Legislature reversed it back to Albany.

		From this place and others throughout the Willamette Valley, the Kalapuyan indians lived their lives trading with neighboring peoples who in turn interacted with communities throughout the Northwest, the Plateau, and the northern Great Basin.
		Represented in this exhibit is a sampling of the basketweaving traditions of these regions.
