ROCKING LOCKS FROM 35,000 BC!

These are African Chinese, known as the Jomon people, and it is assumed that the original inhabitants of China were black. They arrived 100,000 years ago and were still living in the country during the Qing Dynasty. Rocking their natural hair way back in the early 20th century!

At about 35,000 B.C. some of these people took this route and entered Japan. They became the first Humans to inhabit the Japanese Islands. Later, another group, known to us as the Ainu, followed.Today, their genes can still be found in 40% of modern Japanese, as well as Mongolians and Tibetans- Past and Present Kings & Queens.

Monday evening (June 17, 2024), at approximately 2000hrs Tour 2 was dispatched to the 400 block of Fulton St. for a Signal 411 for a reported house fire. First arriving units found smoke showing from the attic of a 2 1/2 story single family home. Crews faced difficulties with long hose stretches, Collyer's Mansion conditions, and high temperatures from the heat wave, but were able to limit damage to the home and hold the fire to a single alarm.

Companies operating on scene were E5, E3, E2, E1 (FAST), L2, L3 & R1. EMS provided medical monitoring and rehab under the supervision of S4. All units operated under the command of DC2, BC1 & BC2.
