The Randall Museum San Francisco Natural History Series
presents

“Shellmounds  - Ancient Monuments & Funerary Places of San Francisco  
and the Bay Area”

with guest speaker Perry Matlock

For thousands of years the Native people of the San Francisco Bay  
Area built temples of shell to honor their dead. These sacred  
Indigenous burial grounds are known as shellmounds.  Sadly, today,  
most of the approximately 500 shellmounds have been obliterated or  
rest in ruins. Join long-time shellmound activist Perry Matlock for  
an evening presentation on the history and importance of these sacred  
grounds and the efforts being made to preserve them.
