Dr. John Parker will give a presentation on the evidence found showing Chinese-Pomo interactions in the area of the Sulphur Bank Mine.  

Archaeological work conducted on the reservation just north of Sulphur Bank Mine uncovered the remains of historic house locations dating to 1900 and earlier.

Visitors are welcome.
