  • 4.5 Cultural Resources
    Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail Network Master Plan EIR Section 4.5 Cultural Resources 4.5 CULTURAL RESOURCES 4.5.1 Setting a. Environmental Setting. The Master Plan corridor stretches the entire length of Santa Cruz County from the San Mateo County line north of Davenport to Railroad Avenue in Monterey County. The corridor primarily aligns with the Santa Cruz Branch Rail Line right-of- way, a 32-mile, continuous travel corridor. The RTC now owns 31-miles of the Santa Cruz Branch Rail Lineis now owned by the RTC. The rail right-of-way would serve both rail service and bike/pedestrian trail functions. b. Historical Background. Prehistory. Santa Cruz County is in the Monterey Bay Area, a cultural-historical geographic region which spans the central California coastline from Big Sur northward to just south of the San Francisco Bay. This region generally corresponds to southern Costanoan language groups. The prehistory of the Monterey Bay Area is categorized according to temporal “periods,” which refer to the general social, economic, and environmental adaptations of Native California populations during a given time in prehistory. David A. Fredrickson’s Paleo-Archaic-Emergent cultural sequence (1974) is commonly used to interpret the prehistoric occupation of Central California and is broken into three broad periods: the Paleoindian Period (10,000-6000 B.C.); the three-staged Archaic Period, consisting of the Lower Archaic (6000-3000 B.C.), Middle Archaic (3000-500 B.C.), and Upper Archaic (500 B.C.-A.D. 1000); and the Emergent Period (A.D. 1000- 1800). T. Jones’ (1993) updated period sequence, which integrates data from the central California coast, consists of the Paleoindian (9000-6500 B.C.), Millingstone (6500-3500 B.C.), Early (3500-1000 B.C.), Early/Middle Transition (1000-600 B.C.), Middle (600 B.C.-A.D.

  • Notes on the 1906 Aerial Panorama of Santa Cruz by George Lawrence
    Notes on the 1906 Aerial Panorama of Santa Cruz by George Lawrence Peter Nurkse [email protected] This panorama of Santa Cruz in the summer of 1906 seems to have some insight into the spirit of the place. It is not a typical promotional or resort picture of sun and surf, as you can see from the overcast sky and the mist in the air. It shows a small community captured between the mountains and the curve of the ocean. The ocean itself takes up about half of the picture, emphasizing the natural environment of Santa Cruz. It could be called a profound picture of Santa Cruz, because it shows Santa Cruz as people who live here know it, as a smaller community, somewhat isolated and different too, with some characteristic depth and feeling. Almost like a portrait of a person, but capturing a community. In 1906 ocean front property wasn't yet crowded real estate. Most people chose to live near each other and near services and other supplies, closer to downtown. It is sobering to think that the people who lived in this landscape probably took what we see here as quite stable and settled, the way things were. Yet less than a century later, much has changed. So what we take for granted today may also look very different in another century. And changes can happen in cycles: over a century people moved into downtown, then they moved out, then they moved back again, so perhaps that cycle will just continue. Below are some comments on buildings and places in the photo.

There are no other historical landmarks or interpretive facilities that reflect the ethnic background of the majority of the community. The Bockias-Orr House owned by the Pajaro Valley Historical Association commemorates the Anglo pioneers of Watsonville, while the Agricultural History Museum at the Fairgrounds interprets the farming heritage of the valley. The acquisition of the Rancho San Andrés Castro Adobe was consciously made to preserve and interpret the only remaining building of the Mexican Rancho era of California remaining in the Pajaro Valley and the finest example of a rancho hacienda in the Monterey Bay region.

  • The Tales of Old Mother Chapar by Phil Reader
    The Tales of Old Mother Chapar As narrated by Phil Reader She was already old, so it is said, when the city of Santa Cruz was new; a living relic from an era, which had long since passed into the chain of time. Each morning she could be found, with staff in hand, making the rounds of the back streets and the alley ways of town; reeking of cheap whiskey, foul smelling cigars, and begging for enough food to keep her scarecrow frame alive long enough to beg another day. Most citizens and local merchants felt compassion for her wretched condition and extended many charities to the old woman, as she paused at their door steps, filling her drawstring gunny sack with tiny tidbits of meat, vegetables, and the occasional coin. In return, they would receive a toothless grin and a heat felt, “Buenos dias!” But the refined ladies of nineteenth century Santa Cruz turned away in embarrassment, as they chanced to encounter her along the avenue – their delicate figures and attire in stark contrast to her rough and wrinkled countenance. Sometimes street urchins would follow along behind, pelting her with small pebbles, while taunting her with insulting rhymes. She would respond in kind, shaking an angry fist in their direction and muttering profanities at them in Spanish until, at last some objecting adult would step in and chase the children away. At the end of her daily round, she would retreat back up to her little hack on the chalk rock hill (1) and pass the day in sun-drenched siesta, sometimes receiving a visit from an old friend or one of her many descendants, but usually she would sit quietly alone until night descended.
