Back from the mountain

The trail crew is back from the mountain trail. Kadizzle decided to go because he wanted to add another notch to his trail list. Kadizzle has been all over the Seaira Anca Mountains. The highlight of yesterdays hike was the find of a strange site occupied by early natives. Walking up the trail Kadizzle saw what his missed going down. On top of a large rock was a collection of pot shards. Normally this means a dwelling site was nearby. Kadizzle figured as ususal the pot pieces had washed down from above so he started up hill to find where the site must be. There was none. How could there be so many pot pieces yet no visible remains of a site? Searching in futility for something that would indicate a dwelling was once here Kadizzle had no luck. Usually there is a reason a place is chosen. It might be for a view, water, or protection. None of these were present. The only reason anyone might have chosen the area was the abundance of acorns. In the end Kadizzle had to conclude early people came here to collect acorns. Perhaps they brought containers to fill with the seeds. That was the only thing that made sense. However, there were a couple pieces of decorated pottery. You don't use the good stuff for collecting seeds. The mystery remains.
