PAGE EIGHT ‘ _FINDS ANCIENT ABODE Camera Locates Cliff Dwelling in Zion Canyon. Probable That No Human Foot Has Been in Dwelling for at Least 1,500 Years. Los Angeles. — Discovering from Los™Angeles a hitherto unknown cliff dwelling 400 feet up. a 2,000-foot can- yon side in Utah is a new expe- rience. It was the experience of Eyre Pow- ell of 44 Wavecrest avenue, Venice, who in enlarging a unique photograph taken with a telephoto lens, made what may prove to be one of the greatcst archaeological discoverles of recent years in the United States. The photograph was taken In Zion canyon, Utah, recently ~declared a national park, and shows what ap- parently is a cliff dwelling 400 feet long and 6v or 7O feet wide. It is probable, according to Mr. Powell, that no human foot has been in the dwell- ing for 1,500 years or longer. In this fact lies its chief archaeological importance, as other cliff dwellings, found at the surface, have been the homes of animals and much disturbed since being inhabited by their original builders. The photograph as taken at a distance of about three-quarters of a mile from the cliff, Mr. gPowell having no idea that it would reveal anything of particular interest. The portion of the photograph which later was found to show the anclent dwelling was less than a qudrter of an Inch in size. Through successive enlargements this was 1ncrea§ed to about 12 inches. The dwelling Is about 400 - feet above the top of the shale slide at the base of the cliff. Leading down from the dwelling are traces of the ledge once used by the dwellers to go up and down to their safe retreat. These ledges have been almost com- pletely eroded by the elements in the Japse of years, aud it is cafe to eay, according to Mr. Powell, that the dwellings there have been undisturbed for many centuries. The discovery of the cliff dwelling in the picture came as a complete surprise to Mr. Powell. He has de- clded, however, to make an early in- vestigation of the place, and believes that a skilled Alpine climber may be THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER One Minute “Movie” Picture by the sandwu{n night wind 21— E-M=R—L-I=N= == E=E=R=N=R=l=R=A=A= A= E=X=] CEPVRIGHT THE IWTRANATIONAL SYNOICATE Bemidji Market Quotations |‘ Bemidji Potato Market—All varieties, bulk, small lots, to $3.50 per cwt.
