Who are the Round Valley Indian Tribes of the Round Valley Reservation?
The Round Valley Indians consists of the Covelo Indian Community. This community is an acculmination of small tribes; the Yuki, who were the original inhabitants of Round Valley, Concow, Little Lake and other Maidu, Pomo, Nomlaki, Cahto, Wailaki, and Pit River peoples. They were forced onto the land formerly occupied by the Yuki tribe. From years of intermarriage, a common lifestyle, and a shared land base, a unified community emerged. Their heritage is a rich combination of different cultures with a common reservation experience and history.
