About
Agoura Hills
The
beautiful area of Agoura was first inhabited by the Chumash Indians,
friendly Indians who were able to survive here because of the
natural springs and streams in the Santa Monica Mountains. They
were skilled in farming, hunting and fishing, establishing homes
in both coastal and inland locations. The acorn was a major food
source, according to Charlie Cook, a fifth generation hereditary
chief of the Chumash. Acorns were collected and ground into a
mush. It is said in the old days before the Spanish came, the
Chumash conducted seasonal burns every 3 to 5 years. This produced
better plant life and better food sources, and never hurt the
many oak trees.
Later, the Franciscan friars came to the area and set out to educate
the Chumash in European ways, hoping to convert them to their
way of life and teachings. The California missions were established
and connected by the El Camino Real, the main roadway running
from Los Angeles to San Francisco which was formerly a Chumash
trail. This road ran through the heart of what is now the City
of Agoura Hills.
