Sastean Indians,

A stock comprising the Autire of Shasta Valley, the Edohwe on Klamath River, and the Iruwai of Scott Valley, formerly inhabiting Siskiyou county, Cal., the region along the Klamath, and a portion of the territory of Oregon. At one time they had twenty-four villages, and numbered about 3,000. In 1899 there were twenty-four Sasteans at the Grande Ronde agency, and 487 at the Siletz agency, both in Oregon. They are also known as Shasta Indians.
