FAQ
Arellano gives a detailed context to understand our presence on the ancestral lands of the Muwekma Ohlone, land on which our institution and the city of San Jose occupy.
It is apparent that the pre-contact Ohlone had distinguished medicine persons among their tribe. Some of these people healed through the use of herbs, and some were shamans who were believed to heal through their ability to contact the spirit world.
The Ohlone cleared the lands around their seasonal villages not only by burning, but also by intense and constant tending, using gardening activities familiar to us today--weeding, shrub and tree removal, pruning, planting, and plant propagation.
The Muwekma Ohlone Tribe has lived in the San Francisco Bay Area since before recorded history. There is evidence that they have been there for many thousands of years. Their land was taken from them,first by the Spanish missionaries who came to what is now California and then by the American Government itself.
The Ohlone are Native American people located in the Northern California Coast, tribes inhabited areas from the coast of San Francisco through Monterey Bay to lower Salinas Valley. The Ohlone family of tribes have been living in the Bay Area for 10,000 years.
Ohlone was an umbrella term given to the collective of various tribes, bands, and territories. Chabot College sits on land recognized as Ohlone Muwekma, the Chochenyo speaking People. This land was and continues to be of great importance to the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe and other familial descendants of the Verona Band.
The present-day Muwekma Ohlone Tribe is comprised of surviving American Indian lineages aboriginal to the San Francisco Bay region who trace their ancestry through the Missions Dolores, Santa Clara, and San Jose; and who were also members of the historic Federally Recognized Verona Band of Alameda County.
We recognize the importance of this land to the indigenous Ohlone People of this region and strive to be good stewards on behalf of the Muwekma Ohlone tribe whose lands we occupy.
