42 NARF Legal Rev. 1 (2017)

handle is hein.journals/narf42 and id is 1 raw text is: Groundwater Rights Confirmed But the Fight Continues The Agua Caliente NARF's client, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians and their ancestors have been in Coachella Valley, California, since time immemorial. Deep in Kak wa wit (Tahquitz Canyon) north of Palm Springs, archaeologists have discovered proof of Cahuilla Indian occupation for more than 5,000 years, which echoes the Tribe's oral history. According to the migration story of the Agua Caliente, Evon ga net (the Fox) was a powerful leader who traveled to the Coachella Valley from a nearby valley in the west. As he entered the valley, he recognized and marked it as a new home for his people. Soon thereafter, the leader of the Fox Clan, Ca wis ke on ca, saw the mark of the Fox alongside the oasis of what is now known as Palm Springs and settled his tribe deep in the canyon. For thou- sands of years, Agua Caliente people have not only lived but thrived in the region. Thriving in the desert takes special knowledge and skills, which the Cahuilla gained over the millennium. Surface waters are often available only seasonally and can be unreliable. The Cahuilla Andreas Creek Indian Canyons courtesy Kate Anderson / Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians.
