North County Indians
Archaeology A glimpse into the lives of people who lived in the Escondido area anywhere from several hundred to several thousand years ago is neatly under glass at Palomar. A new Fall archeological display, organized by Abraham Gruber, includes artefacts, photographs, and models showing N. County Indian cultures. "These two small arrowheads !picked up in about 15 minutes," Gruber said. He also pointed out a rare "portable" bed rock with the characteristic indentation on both sides. Fourteen photos taken by Gruber and prepared py Justus Ahrend in the Palomar photo lab show sites from which some of the objects came. Also depicted are natural shelters, bed rocks, and petrographs.
Exhibit Dennis Bostic, zoology instructor, and studentsJohn C. Kountz, Dona Dascenzo, and Margaret McKee also contributed to the display. Theyprovidedpotsherds, tools, arrowheads, and a model depicting Indian housing. The pottery is of particular interst, Gruber pointed out, because it is virtually unknown among California Indiam. outside San Diego County. Also on display are chia seeds, a favorite food of the Luisenos. The plant is still widely found in the area. Another edible part of the exhibit are peyote buds . Hallucinations produced by this plant figured in the religious ritual of these N. County red men. Gruber welcomes anyone interested to view the current display. It can be seen at P-17.
