Our web site's purpose is to heighten the awareness of what Neolithic art and artifacts are. Our goal is to prevent the destruction of our rich heritage that these ancient Americans created. Another reason for the existence of this web site is to be the first private collector to voluntarily comply with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1991. In addition, we wish to provide a resource for the study of Neolithic art and artifacts. Most of the artifacts on display were discovered on private property with the land owner's consent from sites in the Pacific North American states of California, Oregon, and Washington. The exceptions to this are the artifacts that were recovered at building sites and gardens around Redwood City, California or otherwise noted.
