    The Lovelock Cave was discovered in 1911 by guano miners and archaeologically investigated in 1912. Thousands of artifacts were found and recovered. The most significant and meanwhile legendary is the Tule Duck Decoy which was made from bundled tule growing close to the dave and feature feathers and painted details. The decoys – a total of eight were found – are considered to have been made between 400 B. C. and 100 A. D. none like these were ever found again.
