Chowigna Indian Village

History
2
The bluff above Malaga Cove is a large and important archaeological site where native peoples set up camps among the sand dunes for perhaps 8,000 years. Although these seashore dwellers left no visible monuments, they did leave numerous hearths and scores of their dead to attest to their continued presence and activity. Four levels of Indian occupancy have been discovered, each characterized by tools, implements, and weapons.
