- Photo title: The Carpinteria California Tar Pits, 2.
- Author: Peachpappa
- Cover photo description:
- There are five natural tar pit lakes in the world, three in the Southern California area. The tar, most likely from the Pleistocene epoch, which was about 2,588,000 - 11,700 years ago, produced a substance the local Chumash people knew to use as a sealant for their canoes, and as asphalt. Hundred of animal and birds had also been trapped in the, preserved and now saved in the local, Carpinteria Valley Museum of History.
