GERALDO ALDAMA SR, Kumiai Indian elder and Native American Indigenous rancher, is pictured on his working ranch -- Rancho Tipai -- holding primitive oak RABBIT STICKS he made in the ancient Kumeyaay way for sale across the US-Mexico border.
Gerarldo was born and raised on his beloved Rancho Tipai and his Kumiai family has lived on the ranch for as long as he remembers.
He says he speaks fluent Kumeyaay language as naturally as he speaks Spanish.
As an authority on aboriginal survival knowledge, MR. ALDAMA is featured in the rabbit sticks chapter of Paul D. Campbell book:
