All-St- ar Twenty Five It may never lie known just when human occupation of the Bonneville Basin began, but there is an increasing amount of evidence pointing to considerable antiquity for ancient man in this area. Archeological sites suitable for dating human prehistory in western Utah are disappointingly scarce. Thus far, nothing comparable to the important and now well publicized finds of Folsom artifacts and other such discoveries in New Mexico, Wyoming, and Colorado has turned up. Danger Cave, located near the boundary at Wendover, is perhaps the most significant of several sites in western Utah that have lieen investigated by professional archcologists. Here, several thousand relics were uncovered from fourteen feet of stratified accumulations. Material from the lowest levels, which contained artifacts, showed dates of 9,000 to 11,000 years ago, by carbon 14 dating. However, no extinct animals were found, neither here nor with anv other human remains or tools in the state, so this cave ami other dated sites in Utah lack the an tiquity of such places as the Lindenmier site, Sandia Cave, and Fnlsrra site. 1969 Oldsmobiles Utah-Neva- Now in Stock!

Pots were usually of small to medium size (up to 16 inches in diameter), not well made and undecorated except for an occasional example with fingernail marks. Whole pottery is very scarce. Metates or grinding stones (see illustration) are the flat, slab type made from thin pieces of granite, limestone, or shist-lik- e material. They vary in size from examples 12 x 6 i U inches to those over two feet long, 12 inches wide and 1 inch thick. Some show evidence of having been shaped by pecking with another stone. Many have been used until worn completely through, which of course rendered them useless to the Indians, although they still make interesting artifacts. Good examples of unbroken metates are becoming increasingly scarce. The small ones were portable and' were probably carried from place to place. Some of the larger nietates weigh up to forty pounds and were left at a camping place and used each time the site was visited. Minos are mostly of the one hand type made, from large pebbles pecked to shape with other stones when necessary. Many are flattened on one side from use. Mano and metate combined to form a grinder for seeds of desert grasses and other plants used as foods. One of the common perennial grasses of western Utah is called Indian rice grass because its seeds were known to be included in the Indian's diet. Surface winds are fairly common and widespread in western Utah; however, some knowledge of the area should lie obtained liefore collecting trips are attempted. The Bonneville Basin is a very sparsely populated desert country. Many of the roads are the primitive (sheep camp type) and only passable in summer months. It is advisable to carry plenty of food, water, extra gasoline, and a shovel in the event that the car liccomes marooned or in case it is necessary to make minor road repairs. None of the liest artifact areas are readily accessible. In Box Elder and Tooele Counties, care should lie taken not to trespass on Dugway Proving Ground or the Wendover Bombing Range. The former is fenced and well marked by signs; the latter is not fenced, although all roads leading into it are posted with warning markers. Some artifacts are of great interest to the archeologist. These are the artifacts which are found in site or in the place ancient man left them. Mounds and. caves are examples, and it is extremely important that you report these caves and mounds, which show evidence of past human occupancy, to the local University. Surface finds are not of particular interest to the archeologist; however, unusual finds should also lie reported.
