Strange Dokdonokmus Relics From Lower California Tribe
Father Heydie of San Francisco preserves relics from the Dokdonokmus, a Digger tribe in Santa Inez valley. An elder Adolrico recalls the tribe’s god Dokdon on a cedar throne, buried camp utensils, pots and mortars, beads, and war paint. Digging the cemetery yielded stone vessels, pipes, flint arrowheads, and swords, with burial customs reflecting gendered grave goods.
