18399 | Juncus textilis Buch. 2051 | Diegueno 65 | hedges86 85 | 23 | Fiber 4 | Basketry 43 | Split stems used in basketmaking. Allowed to dry, the stems were split three or four ways into splints and used as wrapping material for coiled baskets, or sometimes as a foundation material in openwork, coiled leaching baskets. Only the lower two feet of the plant, which grows up to eight feet tall, was gathered and used. The plant was collected at any time during the year, but if the centers of the stems were brown, it was not as good for basket making as when the centers were white. Basket designs were formed with the various natural shades of green, tan and brown found in the plant or it was sometimes dyed black. | Hedges, Ken, 1986, Santa Ysabel Ethnobotany, San Diego Museum of Man Ethnic Technology Notes, No. 20, page 23 |

27014 | Picea glauca (Moench) Voss 2934 | Tanana, Upper 255 | k85 36 | 2 | Fiber 4 | Basketry 43 | Roots used to sew birchbark baskets. Spruce roots were dug by hand or with an axe, preferably from a tree that was not crowded by other trees. The roots of a tree growing in an open place were less likely to be entangled with the roots of other trees and were therefore easier to dig. Spruce roots in moist ground where moss grows were also easier to gather than those found in dry soil. Before using spruce roots, the Upper Tanana peeled the bark off by hand or with a knife. After peeling them, they sometimes dyed them by boiling berries and soaking the roots in the juice. Spruce roots could be dried for future use but must be soaked in water to make them pliable before being used. They could be dug anytime during the year when the ground was not frozen. | Kari, Priscilla Russe, 1985, Upper Tanana Ethnobotany, Anchorage. Alaska Historical Commission, page 2 |

27251 | Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carr. 2938 | Poliklah 199 | m66 109 | 170 | Fiber 4 | Basketry 43 | Roots used to make baskets. The body material of baskets was spruce roots, which were dug out and cut off in lengths of two and a half to three feet and from one half inch to one inch in diameter. These were at once (while full of sap and soft) split into broad flat bands, and these in turn were subdivided by knife and teeth until the desired size was obtained--a little larger than coarse thread, about like small twine. The vertical rods were hazel. The overlay was bear grass. The design was commonly of black maidenhair fern stem or salmon red strands made by dying the stem bundles of Woodwardia fern with chewed alder bark. | Merriam, C.
