Once there were six Chinatowns in San Jose, California, and the last of these, Heinlenville, was buried under a municipal bus yard for decades. Students of Cureton Elementary of San Jose and students of Stevens Creek Elementary of Cupertino sketched and studied real artifacts from an archeological dig and distilled their knowledge into three animations. This video is one of them. The other two Heinlenville animations can be viewed at: http://tinyurl.com/goldmountain
