For many years, the Santa Monica Mountains sustained the #Chumash and #Tongva / #Gabrielino cultures.

Sycamore Canyon, which cuts through }#Rancho #Sierra #Vista/Satwiwa and #Point #Mugu State Park, was part of a Chumash trade route.

#Satwiwa, which means "the bluffs," was the name of a nearby Chumash village.

To reflect this heritage, Satwiwa Native American Indian #Culture #Center and #Natural #Area was established by the National Park Service in partnership with the Friends of Satwiwa.

A Native American guest host or a park ranger is on hand to answer questions from 9am to 4pm on Saturdays and Sundays.

Native American workshops, programs and art shows occur throughout the year.
