The bronze sculpture sits on a rock. The indian is wearing a loincloth, with both hands pointing towards the sky. He's wearing a poneytail.

From the San Luis Obispo Tribune: "“Oh Great Spirit” was created by Nell Scruggs of Thousand Oaks and donated by her daughters, Sharon McDaniels of Arroyo Grande and Terri Ernst of San Luis Obispo, according to Ann Ream, chairwoman of the Art in Public Places Committee at Arts Obispo.

The 800-pound, 12-foot-tall sculpture is not meant to depict a member of any particular tribe, but rather is an homage to all American Indians, she said."
