Description:Keeling catalog note: "Use of the Maiduan word 'kamini' in Powers (1877:286) suggests that it was a generic term for 'dance'. However, the term also occurs in Gifford (1926a:399), who describes it as one of the dances connected with a spirit-impersonating cult which came to the Miwok from the Maidu. Kroeber (1925:364-90) gives much information on the Kuksu religion as a whole." Distributed on California Indian Music Project, Sierra region, tape 1, side A. Original cylinder 14-1215. 165 speed.
