  • 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.
