FROM THE "ROAD NOTES OF MAVEN" Grinding Rocks

maven's note The Sierra Miwok preferentially exploited acorns from the California Black Oak along with bulbs, seeds, fungiand grinded them in the holes that can be seen in the image. Grasshoppers were a highly prized food source but were not grinded and have no idea how they ate them hoppers.The Miwok ate meals according to appetite rather than at regular times...I can relate to that!
