Makuhadokado

The Makuhadokado were a Northern Paiute people of the Humboldt River country, associated with the valleys and mountains around Unionville and Battle Mountain. Their homeland included stretches of the Humboldt Valley and the dry basins to its south. Families hunted and gathered plant foods as resources changed through the seasons, travelling between the lower valleys and the mountain slopes. The river and its tributaries ran through a landscape shared with neighbouring Northern Paiute and Shoshone communities.
