Pacific Union College celebrates the indigenous people whose land we occupy. Howell Mountain is the ancestral home to a people group known today as the Wappo, a name that was given to them by Spanish colonizers. Their Patwin neighbors called them A'shochamai, or "the northerners." They called themselves Onasatis, meaning “the outspoken people." The town of Angwin sits in a mountaintop meadow where these people once lived and worked in a seasonal village. Grinding stones, arrowheads, and forest trails remain as a living reminder of their presence. This is their land, and we remember and honor them. Digitized items in this collection come from the Pacific Union College Archives and Special Collections; they represent only a small portion of the historical record concerning the Wappo or Onasatis people.
