Kumeyaay Ethnobotany Board Game

The Kumeyaay Ethnobotany Board Game with “Lahunt” Richard Bugbee is an exciting historic project documenting deep cultural history, language and indigenous knowledge in San Diego. Richard Bugbee and Indigenous Regeneration Founder Lacey Cannon created an interactive, educational, cultural revitalization board game with a goal of releasing to the public in 2024.

The board game includes original tribal territories in San Diego and Baja, the original trading trails and seasonal traveling directions of the Kumeyaay, traditional plant knowledge, gathering times, traditional primitive skills, original Kumeyaay names of significant locations in San Diego and Baja, Kumeyaay numbers, colors and animal names. The game serves as a teaching tool of the true History of San Diego and Baja as well as a fun interactive way for kids and adults to learn the Kumeyaay language, ethnobotany and rich cultural history of the Kumeyaay Nation.
