Beschreibung:

"In 1923 we went with Carl (Carlos) Montezuma (also known by his Yavapai name, Wassaja) to get the bones from the cave. In that cave, on the wall, it looked like an oil sprayed on. Down on the floor it looked like oil. There is that ‘oil’ all over. It is the blood. When the bullets hit the bodies, the blood got scattered all around.” … “It is here that all our people died. For nothing. And when I got back to Prescott and told my grandmother, my grandmother sure cried.” -Yavapai Elder (Oral History of the Yavapai)
