Early Mis- siOns
Being Explored
BY Scientists

Reading in old she'll heaps, mescal
pits and coog fires the historical
geography of the Indians of pre-
mission davs. a ggoup of ge6Graphers
from the University of California is
continuing the reconstruction of
vanished cultures in Lower Califor-
MIA, according to Il report from p.
Meigs and s. Dicken 20 DIR. c. O.
Sauer, head of tine geography de-
partment.
The party is continuing its study
of the mission sites and of the man
ner of their utilization by the padres
also.
From field study the geographers
are determining the general habits
of livelihood of the Indians in. the
days before the missions and the
localities which they frequented
most.
Another era was that of the col
lapse of the missions. Since then
the Indian and mission localities of
Lower California have been so
largely mdisturbed that the earlier
fortunes of the region may still be
traced out in field study.
Such study in Upper California
is mnch more difficult according TO
DR. Saucr, for the Indian sites and
missions have been obhteratcd pre-
dominatcly by the growth of towns
and farms around them.
