LAKEPORT, Calif. – The monthly “Know Lake County” series will present a program this month on local native archaeology.
The free program will feature Curtis Fair, US Forest Service archaeologist for the Grindstone District of Mendocino National Forest, from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 19, at the Lakeport branch of Lake County Library, 1425 N. High St.
Fair will talk about Yuki archaeology, specifically the findings of the ethnographic Yuki village site of Drew Crossing located in Lake County.
The Yuki village site was a Passport in Time field project in July 2004 and processed in the laboratory in February 2005. More than 100 volunteers worked on this site.
Funding for the completion of the write-up came in part from the Lake County Resource Advisory Committee.
The program consists of a two panel poster and a power point presentation showing artifacts and housing styles during the two phases of occupation.
The Know Lake County lectures feature speakers from a wide array of organizations and disciplines, each representing some aspect of Lake County.
