  • The Discovery of an Isolated Anchor in Monterey, California Is Puzzling Because It Is Made Entirely of Bronze
    THE MYSTERY OF BRONZE ANCHORS: THE MONTEREY BRONZE ANCHOR AS A CASE STUDY JEFFREY R. DELSESCAUX CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA The discovery of an isolated anchor in Monterey, California is puzzling because it is made entirely of bronze. Throughout history, iron and stone have been the typical material used in the manufacturing of ship anchors. The anchor was discovered in Monterey Bay, California in 1944 after becoming fouled in the anchor line of an oil tanker. Now permanently displayed outside the historic Customs House in Monterey State Historic Park, this bronze anchor continues to puzzle researchers. This paper will discuss the possible sources of the Monterey bronze anchor and hypothesize on geographical pressures and lack of industrial resources that could have produced a need for bronze anchors. Iron anchors are a common artifact type displayed in the various seaports around the world. They are so common that most people give them little attention. These anchors usually lack provenience and are in poor condition from their exposure to salt water and, having never been conserved after being recovered, they are deteriorating. It is disappointing because although they lack provenience, anchors can still provide useful data. Typology can provided details, such as age and nationality, and provide clues into the past trading patterns of seaports. The study of anchors might be neglected, but there is one anchor that deserves closer inspection. At Monterey State Historic Park (SHP) in Monterey, California, an unusual bronze anchor lies outside the Customs House, a historic structure that dates back to 1827 (Figure 1). A plaque placed next to it reads, "Old bronze anchor brought up from the bottom of Monterey Bay in July 1944.

The first get-together was held Wednesday, January 30 in the Council Chamber. It provided a great opportunity for us to introduce our new Finance Director, Lauren Lai, and new Parks and Recreation Director, Kristi McClure-Huckaby. Assistant Police Chief Bill Clark was also in attendance to answer safety and crime related questions. The evening was very productive, with all but one neighborhood represented. We talked about priorities, challenges, and interests. We listened to concerns, perspectives, and expectations. The biggest priority for the City is the budget, because everything else that happens rests on being fiscally solvent. Other big topic items that are a priority for the City include: adopting a new wireless ordinance, obtaining the Old Capital site, and resolving homeless issues, especially at Laguna Grande Park. Broad topics of concerns and interests expressed were undergrounding utilities, maintaining our quality of life and making sure we don't overdevelop the waterfront, public safety, housing and homelessness, jobs, water, continuing the infrastructure improvements through Measure S, catching up with the backlog of Neighborhood Improvement Program (NIP) projects, and the congestion and gridlock caused during Car Week each August. At the end of the evening, I think each person there learned something. We appreciate the commitment by the Neighborhood Presidents, and we assured them that we are working to do the best job we can for the community and to maintain our high quality of life.

  • Conservation Lessons from Potted Trees in Pacific Grove, California
    Past, Present and Future of Monarch Grove Sanctuary: Conservation Lessons from Potted Trees in Pacific Grove, California Monte P. Sanford and Robert Pacelli Echo Hawk Law Offices, 505 Pershing Ave, Pocatello, Idaho 83205 Contact: [email protected] Congress Ave, Pacific Grove, California 93950 Contact: [email protected] *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Conservation efforts at the Monarch Grove Sanctuary, California, described in this unique example began as an emergency mitigation project for monarch butterflies. In the course of time, those efforts have evolved and expanded with the interest and involvement of a small group of concerned citizens. The conservation efforts of placing potted trees to fill gaps in the tree canopy required by monarchs have become inextricably bound up in local policies, conveyance of information, participation of community activists, and governmental consideration of community-based conservation actions. In this paper, we describe (1) the importance of the circumstances and ideas behind this potted tree conservation project, (2) the response of monarch butterflies and the community to the potted trees, and (3) how this project may cause a much needed shift in policy toward monarch habitat conservation and restoration efforts. Historical and Conservation Context The Monarch Grove Sanctuary (“Sanctuary”) is one of the oldest known and most permanent sites for overwintering monarch butterflies in California, dating back to at least the late 1800's (Brower 1989). Located along the central coast of California, the Sanctuary is snugly situated within the city of Pacific Grove along the western edge of the Monterey Peninsula. Pacific Grove's infamous logo – 1 “Butterfly Town, USA” – is due to its annual congregation of overwintering monarchs.
