PAI PAI Indians Family Rancho Group Photos of Native American Family

The family is pictured along the side of their home, out of the cold wind, in the Kumeyaay Pai Pai Community of Santa Catarina, Baja California, Mexico. This family is well know for their Native American pottery, coiled and pine needle basketweaving, willow bark skirts, horsehair rope, braided rawhide, and agave fiber carrying net bags.

I was struck by the unity, the togetherness this family displayed during my visit, they seemed stuck together with some sort of glue.
