Yellow (Ancient Egyptian name 'khenet') was the color of women's skin, as well as the skin of people who lived near the Mediterranean-Libyans, Bedouin, Syrians, and Hittites. Yellow was also the color of the sun and, along with gold, could represent perfection.
Located on highway 49 south of Sonora, Coulterville was named after George Coulter, one of the first whites to come to the gold camp already populated by Chinese and Mexicans.
