Land Trust To Save Burial Grounds

The Bolsa Chica Land Trust, who in conjuction with the Amigos de Bolsa Chica helped save the Bolsa Chica Wetlands is now trying to save a Native American burial site.   Caslled the ORA-83 project, it encompasses 6 acres that is near the Brightwater Homes Development on the Bolsa Chica Mesa.

For many  years advocates of saving the Bolsa Chica claimed that there were many skeletal remains, cogstones and bones that should be protected.  Recent unearthings have found over 100,000 bones and artifacts and over 80 human skeletons.

There are several new videos that cover this area and the need for protection and “What’s Up” editors are proud to be introduce you to the BCLT group and point out that there is still a long way to go in protecting this 9,500 year old site.
