Mighty Maidu Museum

Most people probably think "galleria" when they think Roseville, but I, Little Man, think "Maidu Museum"!



The Maidu Museum and Historic Site, located within Maidu Regional Park, are awesome!  Can you find me in the above photo?  Hint: A is for awesome!



There are tons of awesome displays and artifacts inside the museum.  I learned so much that my brain was ready to explode for being so full!



Photos aren't allowed inside the museum but there are plenty of photo opportunities outside. 



Strolling by the giant acorns.  Acorns were a key part of the Maidu's diet. 



They ground acorns in these spiffy bedrock mortar holes.  Mmm, acorns.



There were supposed to be petroglyphs on these rocks but I couldn't see them.



I sure did enjoy the short nature trail, though.  Gotta swing my green plastic arms while I walk!



Awesome!
