Fernandeno Tataviam Band of Mission Indians
The Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians is a historic tribe located in the northern Los Angeles County of California. They are the descendants of ancestral villages from the San Fernando, Santa Clarita, eastern Simi, and Antelope Valleys. The tribe exercises its inherent sovereign authority over its tribal citizens and territory, preserving their traditional ecological knowledge and cultural heritage. The tribe's history dates back to the establishment of Mission San Fernando in 1797 at the village of Achoicominga. They are committed to protecting their homelands, investing in youth culture, and providing social services to support families and students. The Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians is dedicated to preserving their heritage legacy and promoting the well-being of their community.Generated from the website
