I left Black Chasm.
I continued south on Hwy 88.
Next stop:
Indian Grinding Rock State Historic Park.
The Native American roundhouse is a visitor center and museum.
The tribe in this area is known as the Miwok.
The exhibit diligently traces Miwok history during the period of white settlement.
The Miwok built shelters and granaries out of branches and bark.
The discovery of Yosemite by white settlers was disastrous for the Miwok.
Another element to the park are Native American petroglyphs.
A short stroll outside reveals a Miwok Village.
And, the actual grinding rock.
