A textile specimen in the University of California Museum of Anthropology, perhaps to be identified as a sling pocket, adds a new item to the growing list of fabrications made of twisted dogbane fiber (Apocynum cannabinum).It is, moreover, constructed by a technique not to my knowledge previously reported. I am indebted to Professor Robert F. Heizer for calling my attention to this unique object and for the following paragraphs placing it in its relation to Nevada archeology.“The piece comes from a dry cave site (Humboldt Cave) in west central Nevada about 10 miles southwest of Lovelock Cave. The cave was excavated in 1936 by the University of California Department of Anthropology, and the final report on the excavation is now nearly completed.

The California missions, whose original church spaces and visual programs were produced by Iberian, Mexican, and Native artisans between 1769 and 1823, occupy an ambiguous chronological, geographical, and political space. They occupy lands that have pertained to conflicting territorialities: from Native nations, to New Spain, to Mexico, to the modern multicultural California. The physical and visual landscapes of the missions have been sites of complex and often incongruous religious experiences; historical trauma and romantic vision; Indigenous genocide, exploitation, resistance, and survivance; state building and global enterprise. This Dialogues section brings together critical voices, including especially the voices of California Indian scholars, to interrogate received models for thinking about the art historical legacies of the California missions. Together, the contributing authors move beyond and across borders and promote new decolonial strategies that strive to be responsive to the experience of California Indian communities and nations. This conversation emerges from cross-disciplinary relationships established at a two-day conference, “‘American’ Art and the Legacy of Conquest: Art at California’s Missions in the Global 18th–20th Centuries,” sponsored by the Terra Foundation for American Art and held at the University of California, Los Angeles, in November 2019.
