Native Americans have lived on the California
landscape at least 13,000 years.
The Ohlone people arrived in the the Bay Area about
3,000 years ago, before 500 B.C.E..
During the last 250 years, other peoples have
arrived from all over the world; the population on this land
has increased by 2,000 times.
Although few traces survive of most of the
sovereign Native groups who once lived here, many Bay
Area Native Americans are rediscovering and celebrating
their history and traditions.

Between Mexican independence in 1822 and the U.S.Mexican War, 1846-1848, Mexico made over 800 land grants in
California. Nearly all went to members of families who had come
from New Spain or Mexico since 1775, rather than to Native peoples.
On the ranchos, Native Americans worked for and with the
new landowners. They formed the adobe bricks and built the houses;
herded the cattlle and slaughtered them for the hide and tallow trade;
tended the gardens, fields and orchards; cooked the food and cared
for the children.
Native Americans outnumbered the Spanish-speaking
landowners on the ranchos by about twenty to one; the ranchos’
history is part of the heritage of California’s Native Peoples.
Visit the alcoves on the adobe wall outside to learn about
daily life on the Peralta rancho from both perspectives.
