The precise reading of the Court's ruling was not a determination that the government had a requisite "compelling interest" in the construction of a disputed logg ing road through land ancestrally used for prayer and ritual by the Yurok, Karok, and Tolowa peoples.

He does not, however, try to fit the Yurok, Karok, and Hupa into a world scheme of social order and group psyche as Lomax might have done, but restricts himself to what the singers themselves had to say about what their music meant to them:

(86-1013 U.S.) regarding Yurok, Karok, and Tolowa rights in the high country of the Six Rivers National Forest, California.

In salute to Old Coyote, the Karok tell of how Coyote, like Robin Adair, disguised himself and was allowed to enter the home of two old hags who kept the key that locked the salmon out into the ocean by a great dam made by the earth creator, Kareya.

Linda Eisenhart concentrates on the technology of Hupa, Karok, and Yurok basketry, while Carolyn Marr (Western Washington) examines three ways in which cultural upheaval resulted in modified basketry forms in Twana twined baskets; Makah "trinket" baskets; and Tillamook, Clatsop, and Chehalis examples.
