  1. Jumano

  2. When you think of the mountains and basins… Think of the Jumano!

  3. Jumano=Pueblo? • Some people refer to the Jumano as the Pueblo, which means “village”. Some historians believed the Jumano of Texas descended from the Anasazi, a group of people who lived in cliffs in Colorado.

  4. Do you see the connection?

  5. Housing • The Jumanos lived in Adobe houses. Adobe is a type of brick made from straw and mud. They had more than one stories and ladders leading up to the 2nd story. Based on their housing do you think they were nomads or sedentary?

  6. SEDENTARY! • They stayed in one place. So were they hunter-gatherers or farmers? Why? • They were farmers, but they lived in the mountains and basins, does that make sense?

  7. Farmers • Farming is very hard in the mountains and basins because they don’t have a lot of water. • So the Jumano were very smart and used irrigation systems to bring water to their crops from nearby streams.

  8. Crops • Jumanos grew many vegetables including corn, beans, and squash. But what were they missing in their diet? • Meat! Where will they get their meat from?

  9. Bartering or Trading • The Jumano had to barter their crops for meat. Which tribes did the Jumano probably trade with? • Mainly the Apache and Comanche (more with the Apache) • If they barter with vegetables, what will the Apache give to them in return? • Buffalo meat, buffalo hides, anything with buffalo!

  10. Jumano Today? • When white settlers came to Texas the Jumano worked with them. But slowly the settlers stopped working with the Jumano and started working with a Caddo, a larger tribe. • Jumanos started working more with the Apache and it’s believed they started becoming a part of other tribes. Today there are no Jumano villages and only a very small number of descendents left in Texas.
