This painting by George Strickland is his reconstruction of a prehistoric outdoor camp scene. Small
shelters constructed of sotol-stalk frames covered with mats, hides, and grass provided temporary
shelter for open campsites across the region. Photo courtesy of the Witte Museum.
This painting by George Strickland is his reconstruction of an outdoor camp scene. In the foreground,
two women cut and dig sotol. To the rear, children and old people bring firewood to the lodges. Small
shelters constructed of sotol-stalk frames covered with mats, hides, and grass provided temporary
shelter for open campsites across the region.
