Endemicity of coccidioidomycosis in Yolo County, outside previously known endemic areas, was confirmed by occurrence of a small epidemic. Eleven cases of clinically apparent coccidioidomycosis occurred among a group of 23 archaeology students. Eight of the cases were confirmed serologically, and three by skin test conversion alone. The specific site of exposure was an ancient Indian burial ground on Cache Creek near Brooks in the Capay Valley approximately 40 miles northwest of Sacramento.
