**Nomination, pending review

There are 9 holes and they are fully exposed because of being in the creek bottom.

According to history books and the remaining Indians in the Gold Country, Miwok & Maidu Indian tribes split the southwestern portion of what is now El Dorado County. The Maidu tribe had vast territories to the north, while the Miwok were south with a small band along the coast.
Both of these tribes were hunter gatherers. The grinding rock shown was probably used to grind the acorns from the oak trees. This ground flour was eaten raw as a paste, used in soups and other dishes. Because it kept throughout the year, it was an essential part of the Indian diet.
