The stream drains approximately of the Rogue Valley and discharges an annual average of into the Rogue River. It begins near Emigrant Lake and travels through the municipalities of Ashland, Talent, Phoenix, Medford, and Central Point.〔 == History == Prior to the arrival of settlers in the 1850s, the ''Bear Creek Valley'' was home to three Native American tribes; these were the Takelmas, the Latgawas, and the Shastas. The scattered camps hunted deer and elk, fished for salmon, and consumed plums, sunflowers, and root crops. When the area was originally settled, the stream was called ''Si-ku-ptat'' by the natives and may have been known as ''Stewart River'' by settlers.〔. For ''Stewart River'', Mr. Gray was referencing a 1925 work by A. L. Kroeber called ''Handbook of California Indians''. For ''Si-ku-ptat'', a 1981 work by J. P. Harrington. An Oregon Department of Environmental Quality report cites "Landry" for ''Si'kuptat''.〕 Various forced migrations occurred during the 1850s in which almost all of the Native American inhabitants were displaced to Indian Reservations by 1857.〔〔 〕 Farmers and ranchers continued to acquire land claims, and when the Oregon and California Railroad arrived in 1883, Bear Creek was chosen as the route to follow. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bear Creek (Rogue River)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
