DRIED YUCCA STALKS

Young Native American California PaiPai Indians pose for a picture with a pile of large desert yucca stalks they gathered at the end of the season.

These dead dried stalks are very light weight and are the preferred premium fuel for PIT FIRING clay pottery in the Yuman Indian way.

Dried yucca stalks are what the California Indians used to fire their pottery for thousands of years in Alta California and Baja California, North America.
