Pechanga Band of Luiseño Mission Indians
Log Number: MN-00-17-0028-17
The Pechanga Band of Luiseno Mission Indians will hire part time project staff and an intern to wash, catalog, photograph, and prepare storage for 25 percent of the Audie Murphy Ranch (AMR) Archaeological Collection (approximately 20,000 artifacts). The AMR Collection consists of more than 80,000 artifacts unearthed at the 1,114-acre Audie Murphy Ranch site in southern California, which is at the center of a large village complex inhabited by Luiseo people for nearly 12,000 years. Completion of the project activities will provide enough information to create two physical exhibits and one kiosk-based digital exhibit about the AMR village complex. The digital exhibit will be a permanent part of the existing Pechanga Virtual Museum, which is located in the Pechanga Government Center.
