net net (Cahuilla term for leader) Explanation: "The leader of a village was called a "net." The net presided over all village ceremonies and was responsible for resolving disputes." http://www.augustinetribe.org/cahuilla.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 24 mins (2015-10-23 11:53:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Updating:Cahuilla net (ceremonial and clan leader) "Based on the work done by anthropologist William Duncan Strong, who followed Hooper to the region 6 years later, one might assume that she too gathered her information from a Cahuilla net (ceremonial and clan leader). It was the net’s duty to learn and know the creation stories precisely, and to preserve and teach the history of their people. The hereditary role of net was normally passed from father to the oldest or most capable son, however, female nets were not unknown in Cahuilla history." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 27 mins (2015-10-23 11:56:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In:https://www.accmuseum.org/getdoc.cfm?id=4 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 29 mins (2015-10-23 11:58:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And also in:http://www.accmuseum.org/Origin-Beliefs -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 34 mins (2015-10-23 12:03:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- SORRY!
