Virginia had me in raptures as she told David and I all about Ishi who was the last of the Yahi Indians of America, she told us of Ishi living with them for long periods how he learned to eat a meal with them and so on. Virginia had some arrow heads that Ishi had made but I don't have a photo of them so I did a Google and here's a photo of the Arrows and Ishi himself.

Many years after Virginia told us of Ishi we saw a story about him on SBS, Virginia was thrilled when I rang her.

From Wiki...

Ishi, having come to live in San Francisco, and having no immunity to the 'diseases of civilization,' was often ill. He was treated by a Professor of Medicine at UCSF, Saxton T. Pope. Pope became close friends with Ishi, and learned from him how to make bows and arrows in the Yahi way. He and Ishi often hunted together.
