For at least the last 10,000 years Salinan people have inhabited the Central part of California from the Pacific Ocean East to the Temblor Mountains. Today we are known as the Salinan People named by the California Spanish Missionaries who built Missions San Luis Obispo de Tolosa, San Miguel Arcangel and San Antonio de Padua.\u00a0 Through self-reliance and preservation, we continue to thrive through hundreds of years of changes that impacted our culture.\u00a0 Living in the lands of our ancestors we have all we need to survive, we continue to hunt, fish, and gather traditional materials during these modern times.\u00a0 We continue to speak our traditional language, which is part of the Hokan Language group, believed to be the oldest in California.\u00a0 The Missionaries divided Salinans into three dialects, the Playano (of the beach people), northern Antoniano, and southern Migueleno.\u00a0 Through our Educational non-profit we educate the people of the Central Coast and the world about our connection to this land and the importance of protecting and preserving this special place for generations to come.
<\/span>We are often asked, who owns Lesa'mo', Morro Rock? Isn\u2019t this Chumash land? Our answer is easy, but not simple. Morro Rock belongs to nobody, but rather, we, the Salinan Tribe, belong to Morro Rock. Our ancestors lived and prayed here, and we continue this today and tomorrow. We are still here, and we will remain. The very Western Civilization concept of \u201cland ownership\u201d is part of the heart of what troubles us all today.
Our traditional lands the Salinan People belong to count a large swath of what is now known as the Central Coast of California. Our 13 known villages stretched from Monterey County to the Santa Maria River, inland along the Temblor Mountains, and all along the coast, from Big Sur to south San Luis Obispo County. We lived along the length of the River now known as the Salinas with which we share our name, from its Adelaide headwaters flowing north into Monterey. But our ancestors - whether known today as Salinan, Chumash, Yokat, or European Colonizers \u2013 didn\u2019t own any of that land. The Land owned them. They shared what they had with any who joined with them, as we do today. As we recognize the Creator\u2019s truths - Everything Sacred, Everything Related; and celebrate Solstice together, I want to say that, if you are here, today you are Salinan. We are still here, and will be so tomorrow.<\/span><\/p>
