Title
Diegueño home
Curtis Caption
The Diegueños, a Yuman division formerly inhabiting practically the whole of San Diego county, are now found on about a dozen small reservations. Although they were not formerly agriculturists like the Colorado River Yumans, many of them take excellent care of their little ranches. Such houses as the one shown here are not of the primitive type, though they are constructed of the same materials.
