Description

Here’s a very nice old ear spool found in 1935 on Roth Ranch on the Mokelumne River, 2 miles N.E. of Clements. It measures approx.1-1/8″x 3/8″ and has a nick and a chip on the backside of it as I’ve shown in the pix.
All
these beads and/or artifacts are from the same
collection and I do have docs on them all. S.A. Martine is the gentleman
that did the collecting with permission from the land owners back in
the 1930’s-40’s. The collection has been in storage since the 1950’s and
all the items have been tagged and all of them are from within a 45
mile radius of Sacramento, California with the exception of a site at
Point Conception in Santa Barbara County and several sites in the state
of Nevada, again with permission on private property.
Mr.
Martine was well known at the time and was recognized as having the
most comprehensive collection of Sacramento Valley artifacts ever
amassed and worked closely with Sacramento City College and the
University of California. He kept a comprehensive dig log and tagged his
finds with site location and date recovered.
The
collection was put into storage in the 1950’s  and has recently been
released for sale by the family and we are fortunate enough to be able
to offer this wonderful collection of beads, stone and bone tools and
some of the nicest Stockton type points and blades we have ever seen.
