The Presence in the southern California coastal region of prehistoric cultures showing considerable use of milling stones has been recognized for some years. Attention was called to this fact by the publication in 1929 of David Banks Rogers’ Prehistoric Man of the Santa Barbara Coast. Rogers distinguished a sequence of three aboriginal cultures in the Santa Barbara area, the earliest of which (Oak Grove) was characterized by the employment of this form of grinding implement almost to the exclusion of other artifacts. In the same year Malcolm J. Rogers noted a somewhat analogous complex (now La Jolla) in western San Diego County (M. J. Rogers 1929: 456-7). Occurrences of similar assemblages have been reported upon since (Treganza and Malamud 1950; Walker 1952).An investigation conducted at the Little Sycamore site (Ven 1) in Ventura County by a class in archaeological field methods from the University of Southern California uncovered evidence of yet another milling stone complex.

San Vicente Lake is being formed by a dam across San Vicente Creek four miles north of the village of Lakeside, California. The dam is being constructed by the Water Department of the City of San Diego as a unit of its broad plan to develop the water resources of the adjacent Coast Range. The waters of the lake, which are now rising rapidly, cover a very beautiful valley. The surrounding mountains, covered with massive granite boulders, create a picturesque setting.
