Mattole
The
Mattole
, including the
Bear River Indians
, are a group of
Native American
s in
California
. Their traditional lands were along the
Mattole
and
Bear River
s near

indigenous peoples of California
is that the men traditionally had facial tattoos (on the forehead), while other local groups traditionally restricted facial tattooing to women.
