LAKEPORT >> Curtis Fair, US Forest Service archaeologist for the Grindstone District of Mendocino National Forest will talk about Yuki archaeology, specifically the findings of the ethnographic Yuki village site of Drew Crossing located in Lake County. This free program is part the Lake County Library’s Know Lake County series. The program will be held Saturday at the Lakeport branch of Lake County Library at 1425 N. High Street from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. For more information call the library at 263-8817.
The Yuki village site was a Passport in Time field project in July 2004 and processed in the laboratory in February 2005. Over 100 volunteers worked on this site. Funding for the completion of the write-up came in part from the Lake County Resource Advisory Committee (RAC). 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.
