Permalink:
ark:/21549/hm21010081505
Accession number:
Acc.951
Description:
chipped stone.
Donor:
Franklin Fenenga and Robert Fleming Heizer
Collection place:
CA-Mrp-NL-3, Mariposa County, California
Verbatim coll. place:
CA-Mrp-NL-3 denotes the “Site [blank], Mariposa Co., Calif.” in the Museum collections for 12-7188. There are Catalogue-1 cards for 1-18503 to 1-18505 filed under CA-Mrp-7 that also have the location “Mariposa Co: Site ?” and ledger entries with the same ambiguous provenience. It is unclear how/why these records came to be attributed to CA-Mrp-7 since both the ledger and cards do not mention this site and no accession information exists beyond the “various sites” notation.
