The Wishram and Wasco tribes are two Chinook peoples who lived across the river from each other at The Dalles - the Wishram on the northern side of the Columbia River.
Both tribes are known for their intricate wood-carving, beadwork and basketry - the evidence of which can be seen in the necklaces worn by this young woman.
