Indian ceremonial pestle to be shown at Mendocino County Museum
A 9.5 inch serpentine conical pestle, tied to early Yuki territory, will be displayed at Mendocino County Museum in Willits early January. The artifact, found by Almar McKinley in the 1960s near Laytonville and donated in 1972 by Mrs. Louis Heckendorf, was studied by UC anthropologists who suggest it was used by a shaman 2,000 to 3,000 years ago, possibly pre-Yuki.
