[rigewula]

Jim, I've been waiting to see something like this for a long, long time...since I can't make the trip to the museum myself. Thank you so very much. rb

You're very welcome. You might want to try the phoebe a. Hearst museum website. Key word: Yahi, Ishi. there are many pictures there. Thanks for the comment. I happy there are other people out there who care about Ishi.

@FlintknapperJimmy do u think they made there bows with stone tools?

Thank you for posting Ishi's tools. My heart goes out to him very much.

Wow really neat! I think I remember either seeing a photo of Ishi wearing that deer head, or reading about it, while he was deer hunting with a bow and arrow. He really made a big difference with his life's last few years, bigger than he realized I suspect.

I agree. Ishi was an incredible human being. I knap in the same style as him when I make my small arrowpoints. I'll be posting some videos soon. I just bought my camcorder but editing is a pain!

[scalpcreek]

ageed editing is a pain. do you use a puchased editing program or the free MS one? i bought the 100 buck editing one and it is okay, don't know it is worth 100 or not though.

[FlintknapperJimmy]

The program that came with the camcorder is really bad and hard to use. I just went ahead and bought Cyberlink Power Director V4 off of ebay for 10 bucks. There is a new version 7 out but it was 70.00. I'm sure it will do what I need it to. Maybe in a week or two I'll be posting some decent footage.

Thanks!

Thank you, I always wanted to see some of Ishi's work!

[FlintknapperJimmy]

You're welcome. As I get things going here at youtube, and when I get a real camcorder, I'll be posting more on Ishi. He is at the forefront of my study of Native American crafts.
