Since we are on the topic of food devices, I have a 1860s Chinese fishing
camp with fragments of a bowl with scorations in the bottom. Pete Schultz,
California State Parks, reported an almost identical bowl from Woodland,
California that he interprets to be a food processor. I am wondering if (1)
other archaeologists have seen those same things, and (2) if anyone has
ethnographic information substantiating Pete's interpretation?
