  • Three Chumash-Style Pictograph Sites in Fernandeño Territory
    THREE CHUMASH-STYLE PICTOGRAPH SITES IN FERNANDEÑO TERRITORY ALBERT KNIGHT SANTA BARBARA MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY There are three significant archaeology sites in the eastern Simi Hills that have an elaborate polychrome pictograph component. Numerous additional small loci of rock art and major midden deposits that are rich in artifacts also characterize these three sites. One of these sites, the “Burro Flats” site, has the most colorful, elaborate, and well-preserved pictographs in the region south of the Santa Clara River and west of the Los Angeles Basin and the San Fernando Valley. Almost all other painted rock art in this region consists of red-only paintings. During the pre-contact era, the eastern Simi Hills/west San Fernando Valley area was inhabited by a mix of Eastern Coastal Chumash and Fernandeño. The style of the paintings at the three sites (CA-VEN-1072, VEN-149, and LAN-357) is clearly the same as that found in Chumash territory. If the quantity and the quality of rock art are good indicators, then it is probable that these three sites were some of the most important ceremonial sites for the region. An examination of these sites has the potential to help us better understand this area of cultural interaction. This article discusses the polychrome rock art at the Burro Flats site (VEN-1072), the Lake Manor site (VEN-148/149), and the Chatsworth site (LAN-357). All three of these sites are located in rock shelters in the eastern Simi Hills. The Simi Hills are mostly located in southeast Ventura County, although the eastern end is in Los Angeles County (Figure 1).

  • Rock Art at Momonga (CA-LAN-357) by Albert Knight July 20, 2018
    1 Rock Art at Momonga (CA-LAN-357) By Albert Knight July 20, 2018 ABSTRACT In 2012 the author reported that, “There are three significant archaeology sites in the eastern Simi Hills that have elaborate polychrome pictograph components. Numerous additional small loci of rock art and significant midden deposits also characterize these sites. Almost all other painted rock art in this region consists of red-only paintings. During the pre-contact era, the eastern Simi Hills/west San Fernando Valley area was inhabited by a mix of Eastern Chumash and Western Tongva (Fernandeño)” . Even so, “the style of the paintings at the three sites (CA-VEN- 1072, CA-VEN-148/149, CA-LAN-357) is clearly Chumash in style. If the quantity and the quality of art are good indicators, then it is probable that these three sites were some of the most important ceremonial locations for the region. An examination of these sites has the potential to help us better understand this area of cultural interaction” (2012:1). To do this, this paper will examine the rock art of the CA-LAN-357 (the Chatsworth Site) in additional detail. The paper includes, 1- An introduction to the site complex, 2- An overview of the ethnographic context, and 3- A summary of the previous research at the site complex. The paper then proceeds to 4- Describe and discuss the rock art. Note that the current paper is a preliminary DRAFT, which is being circulated for comments. The author intends to prepare an expanded version of the DRAFT, which will (hopefully) include color photographs of all the pictographs and additional photographic examples of cupule loci.
