BERKELEY, Calif, April 1.—Pre- served for 3,000 years under debris in a bat-infested Nevada mountain cave, the records of an extinct race are being studied by University of California an- thropologists. Ten thousand specimens recovered from the grotto in a remark- able state of preservation are nowre- as chronicles of a. fighting, red- led trike of -American 'Indiany who were exterminated while Europe was still a wilderness. 3 ‘The cavern is known as the Lovelock Cave, a shelf-like niche in the hillside formed thousands of years ago by the wave action of an ancient lake, long since disappeared. The vanished body of water is known to ‘geologists as Lake Lahontan. P v . Cave Near Lovelock, Ney, ‘The cave is about 22 miles southwest of Lovelock, Nev. The people who in- habited it are vaguely mentioned in Palute Indian e ds as. cannibalisti savages, devold of fear, who were anni. hilated in a. three-year war with the Paijutes ‘about 1,000 B.C. o Mentioned 'in the Palute legends as m s “sSaiduka’a,” or tule eaters, the auburn haired m:e w:? cr::ltlwd wd“:lhm‘e wers. According to legend they were ll’gle to leap into the-air, seize. arfows. that were shot at them and turn them | back at their attackers. They were ex- terminated, it is believed, in a fierce charge against the cave by the enemy. Suddenly Wiped Out. It-is. thought that the sudden .ex- termination may. account for she pre vation of so many possessiohs of'the cient people. The relics have been kept by the dry Nevada climate and are in a state of perfection comparable with that of relics found in Egypt and Peru. Among the objects discovered, some of them buried under 14 feet of debris, were profuse tectile material, including baietry and matting, woodén imple- ments, weapons and sandals. Prof. A. L. Kroeber of the Univer- sity of California, declared the material Imost_wholly pre-Caucasian, having a resemblance of the native -pulture of California in ‘'historic times, He termed it immensely valuable because of: the richness of the whole series of objects discovered. - EDWARD J.
