Lake County

"The Lake County Museum in Lakeport contains an excellent collection Pomo artifacts including a canoe made of grass. Nearly 12,000 years ago, the Xa-Ben-Na-Po Band of Pomo Indians—whose descendants still live here in the Lakeport area today—called Lake County home, as well as Wintun, Wappo, and Lake Miwok Indians. Thousands of stone tools and more than 300 superb examples of Pomo basketry have been acquired by the museum since the 1930s. The main gallery of the museum showcases many artifacts and displays of Pomo culture." Pomo Baskets and other Native American artifacts as well as a Research Library and Photograph Collection are hosted by the museum.
