Kidutokado

Kidutokado was the homeland of the Surprise Valley Northern Paiute, a Numu-speaking people of the northeastern California borderlands. The surrounding country holds a long record of occupation, with stone-working scatters, temporary camps, village remains, rock arrangements and rock art left by Northern Paiute, Modoc and Pit River peoples. In 1826 Peter Skene Ogden entered northeastern California, and in 1832 John Work's party followed, travelling through a region that was already inhabited.
