History & Context
History Monterey, located on the central coast of California, has a rich history that spans centuries. The area was originally inhabited by indigenous people, including the Rumsen Ohlone tribe. Here's an overview of Monterey's history: Indigenous People: The Rumsen Ohlone people lived in the Monterey area for thousands of years before European contact. They had a sustainable way of life, relying on hunting, fishing, and gathering resources from the land and sea. Spanish Exploration and Colonization: In 1602, Spanish explorer Sebastián Vizcaíno sailed into Monterey Bay and named it after the viceroy of New Spain, Gaspar de Zúñiga y Acevedo, Count of Monterrey. However, Spanish colonization did not begin until 1770 when Gaspar de Portolá and Father Junípero Serra established the Mission San Carlos Borromeo de Carmelo (also known as the Carmel Mission) near Monterey. The mission was the center of both religious and economic activity in the region. Mexican Rule: After Mexico gained independence from Spain in 1821, Monterey became a part of Mexican California. The Mexican period saw a shift in governance, and the secularization of the missions led to significant changes in the region's society and economy.
