| Landmark #190 | Riverside County | Visited: February 4, 2012 | Plaque? NO. 🙁 |
| What is it? | A horribly defaced boulder that once held beautiful Luiseño artwork! |
| What makes it historical? | THE GUIDE SAYS: In tribute to the earliest record of any people in this region, the Santa Fe Railway has preserved this rock with its ancient pictograph, and the Committee of the Corona Women’s Improvement Club has placed this tablet.
OTHER TIDBITS: Though all the paintings have been vandalized away, they used to tell a story! While the exact meaning isn’t clear today, it was either a celebration or a warning about floods by the San Jacinto River! |
