Historical Archives
By building the largest collection of Patwin historical archives, we deepen our understanding of the past to guide decisions for the future. Our collection comprises over 12,000 historic and contemporary images, written documents, video and audio files, and rare linguistic and ethnographic field notes from institutions such as UC Berkeley, Harvard, and the National Archives.
We also preserve family collections, oral histories, and newspaper articles to ensure our stories are documented authentically and told by our own people.
These archives support our work across government affairs, education, cultural programming, and site protection, engaging multiple generations and preserving Patwin knowledge for years to come.
