The Last Yahi: Ishi

*************** 10/04\2024**** Ishi**** While doing more research on Pythagorus and the Theory of color and sound. I remembered the story, where Ishi talked about swinging his bow in the wind to make musical sounds. I can no longer find the source, but found a recent documentory that gives some good information about Ishi and his experience with the people that recognised him as the last survivor of his tribe. According to Wikipedia, the bow and arrow has been around for 50,000 years or so. This needs more research, but there is also reference to a harp that sings in the wind found in the old testiment of the Bible.
