Panina Ticutta

The Agai Panina Ticutta, a Northern Paiute people, take their name from the trout of Summit Lake. Set among the dry ranges of the northern Great Basin, the lake holds Lahontan cutthroat trout, a fish closely bound to the identity of its people. The Paiute bands of this region were often known by the foods associated with their homelands, names that recalled the lakes, plants and animals on which their communities depended.
