"Myriads of Stars shine over the graves of our ancestors." Dat-So-La-Lee had seen some 96 winters, mostly in Carson Valley, when death came in 1925.

She was the last of those Washoe weavers whose ancient art had been practiced by countless generations.

Gathering willow, fern and birch with the aid of her husband, she wove into her masterpieces the legends of her people and their love of nature. Her baskets are unsurpassed for artistic conception and symbolic importance.

She is buried in the adjoining cemetery, yet her memories and her visions are so woven into her baskets that she will live on to remind us of the history and unique tribal artistry of her people.
