1 Name Period Parent Signature (EC) LESSON PACKET NEVADA 7 th Social Studies DUE DATE: Much of ancient Nevada use to be covered by waters from ancient Lake Lahontan. Indians from Nevada included the Washoe, Shoshone and Paiute. Need for fur brought the first mountain men to Nevada, finding routes across the desert Emigrants finally came to Nevada for good when SILVER was discovered on the Comstock Lode Re-electing Abraham Lincoln led to Nevada becoming a state in Nevada to most settlers in the 1840 s meant the long stretch of desert following the Humboldt River to the gigantic Sierra Nevada Mountains on their way to California. To the 3 major Native Americans tribes of Nevada it meant a home filled with seasonal movement and sacred places. Both visions of this territory would change by 1859, when miners would return from California over the Sierra Nevada in search of gold at first, and then huge amounts of SILVER. Though Nevada is dry today, ancient Nevada was a lush moisture rich area dominated by a large inland sea. Going back to the time of dinosaurs, the swimming giant known as the Ichthyosaurs roamed Nevada s land underwater. In human times, the sea known to us today as ancient Lake Lahontan covered most of Northwestern Nevada. Tribes of people called its lakeshore home and made fishing nets and duck decoys. However, with the ever rising Sierra Nevada Mountains, Nevada has become more and more dry over the past several thousand years. Ringed by mountains, the territory known as the Great Basin (Big Bowl), with inland flowing rivers, became the dominate landform. Only the very southern tip of Nevada today is outside the Great Basin, but is part of the extremely hot Mojave Desert. Native tribes in Nevada, the Washoe, Shoshone and Paiute, lived in Nevada s harsh environment. Using the mountains and limited resources these tribes moved with the seasons. Winter was spent in the warmth of the valleys and the hot summers were escaped by moving into the many mountain areas. In 1848, gold was discovered in California. Thousands of settlers followed the Humboldt River through Nevada on their way to California. A small settlement was established by Mormon traders from Salt Lake City in the Carson Valley to trade with the settlers. The Latter Day Saints sent even more settlers to Nevada, in Washoe & Eagle Valley (Carson City). However, the numbers remained low until 49 ers searching for more gold began to find some in the hills near what would become Virginia City. Then in 1859, the small gold deposits were forgotten as huge amounts of Silver, known as the Comstock Lode were discovered. The Rush to Washo was on as the Comstock Lode made news around the world. But unlike California s placer mining, Nevada s silver was deep beneath the earth. Virginia City grew upon the rich hills as modern industrial mining took over. Trees from Lake Tahoe were turned into Square Sets to hold up the huge caverns created when the silver was removed. Railroads reached the west and helped move huge machines, pumps and material up the mountains. Mining shafts and men were driven thousands of feet into the earth in search of silver that was disappearing by the day. Nevada even became a state, earlier than thought, as more Electoral College votes in 1864 were seen as needed to keep Abraham Lincoln president. Territorial Gov. Nye turned the state over to it s elected officials, and on October 31 st, 1864, Nevada became the 34h state in the union. Nevada chose the motto Battle Born to symbolize its addition to the union during the great Civil War. Answer the following using the reading above: 1. UNDERLINE the sentence that describes the Great Basin region.. 2. Agree / Disagree Nevada s Geography has remained the same since ancient times. 3. What best describes Native American life in Nevada at the time of the settlers and miners? a. They lived by large lush lakes and used fishing to support them. b. Washo, Shoshone & Paiutes set-up the first trading settlement and made money from the miners. c. Native Americans migrated with the changing weather and lived in a harsh environment. 4. CIRCLE The river that settlers followed through Nevada to get to California. 5. What year could best be described as a turning point in Nevada History? a b c d What happened that year that was so important? 6. What are the 2 different names for the same religious group that set-up a trading post and the 1 st white farms in the Carson & Eagle Valleys? 7. California is to Gold as Nevada is to.
