		Plateau Indians bartered their quality horses for mass-produced trade goods and Indian life changed as a result of the trade as many became dependent on whites for trade goods.
		The Plateau culture area, which includes parts of southeastern British Columbia, northern Idaho, western Montana, eastern Washington, and the Columbia River Gorge and northeast Oregon, is an area with seasonally and geographically restricted supplies of surface water.
		Thus, the Plateau Indians had been led to expect not only the white people, but their religion as well and the rapid spread of the amalgamated faith reflected the anticipation of fulfillment of the prophecies.

	California - Santa Rosa Plateau
		The Santa Rosa Plateau is a secluded refuge in the Santa Ana Mountains-a place of rare beauty and serenity that belies its location near the encroaching city: distant mesas glimpsed through fog, a moss-draped oak overlooking a shallow canyon, cumulus clouds floating over seasonal vernal pools.
		Located in southwestern Riverside County, the plateau is a treasured keepsake of untrammeled Southern California.
		To prevent the plateau from becoming an ecological island in a sea of cities, the Conservancy recently began piecing together land parcels between the plateau and nearby Cleveland National Forest.

		Plateau iris syndrome usually is recognized in the postoperative period when the angle remains persistently narrow in an eye after iridotomy.
		Plateau iris syndrome is characterized by persistent angle occludability (spontaneous, in the dark, or after dilation) in an eye with a patent iridotomy.
		Plateau iris causes crowding of the anterior chamber angle and may lead to acute or chronic angle-closure glaucoma even in the presence of a patent iridotomy.

	eMedicine - Tibial Plateau Fractures : Article by Steven M Sorenson, MD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		To injure the medial plateau requires a large amount of force, and fractures of the medial plateau usually are seen in conjunction with fractures of the lateral plateau and other bones about the knee joint, as well as the supporting structures.
		Fractures of the tibial plateau are estimated to comprise approximately 1% of all fractures.
		The medial plateau generally is believed to be sturdier than the lateral plateau, supporting the clinical observation that medial plateau fractures typically result from the application of more severe forces than required to produce a fracture of the lateral plateau.

		On the west side of the plateau is the Liupan Shan thrust belt, which is structurally connected to the Altyn Tagh-Qilian-Haiyuan fault system bounding the northern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and marks the change from shortening and uplift in the Tibetan Plateau to widespread extension in the North China block.
		Across the plateau the Poisson's ratio is nearly constant with a value of 0.24-0.25 in the upper and middle crust, indicating a felsic bulk composition.
		This transition is coincident with a slight bend in the Karakoram fault that coincides with its intersection with the Ghoza-Longmu Co extension of the Altyn Tagh fault.
