After the war he established a small avocado ranch in Pauma Valley, an inland area in northern San Diego County, where he became interested in and thoroughly familiar with the archaeological remains of the region's prehistoric cultures. Under the mentorship of Clement W. Meighan, he enrolled in anthropology at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he was cited by Time magazine as one of the dozen top graduates in 1961.
