The Tataviam are a small California tribe from northern Los Angeles County. "Tataviam" means "people facing the sun." It is what our neighbors to the north, the Kitenemuk tribe, called us. We, the Tataviam people, believe we have lived in Tataviam territory since time immemorial. The Santa Clarita Valley is the center of Tataviam territory-it is our heart. In order for tribal cultures to survive, we must sing new songs and tell new stories. This is my original creation story. I tell it in the spirit of my Tataviam ancestors. -Alan Salazar "Puchuk Yaʼiaʼc"

The Tataviam The Tataviam belong to the family of Serrano people who migrated down into the Antelope, Santa Clarita and San Fernando Valleys sometime before 450 A.D. They settled into the upper Santa Clarita River Drainage. This places the Serrano among the larger -Shoshonean- migration into southern California that occurred approximately 2,000 years ago. Prior to Spanish contact the Tataviam lived in both large and small villages, comprised of thatched huts, traded with the local Chumash, Gabrielino and Kitenamuk, and learned to survive and thrive in their ecosystem. The Tataviam were a culturally rich group, making beautiful and mysterious rock art, beautifully crafted arrowheads, bowls, and baskets. This book gathers together the knowledge that the scholars, the early explorers and the Tataviam themselves have given us. This is their story.
