Native American Tribe series.

Yahooskin

Also referred to as Yahuskin, they were Shoshonean band which prior to 1864 roved and hunted with the Walpapi about the shores of Goose, Silver, Warner, and Harney Lakes in Oregon. On October 14, 1864 they made a treaty with the U.S. Government ceding their lands and being placed on the Klamath Reservation, established at that time. With the Walpapi and a few Paiute who had joined them, the Yahooskin were assigned lands in the southern part of the reservation, where they were engaged in agriculture, lived in willow lodges and log houses, and gradually abandoned their roaming proclivities. At the turn of the century they were reported to have had a little more than 100 members. Unfortunately, for those living on the Klamath Reservation in Oregon, including the Modoc, Klamath and Yahooskin tribes, an act of congress terminated federal recognition in 1954 and took away some 1.8 million acres of their reservation. In 1986, the Klamath Indian Tribe Restoration Act returned their federal recognition, but did not return their land. Today, they are scattered primarily in Klamath County, Oregon.
