KUMEYAAY.INFO Archive, February 2009. What ever happened to Shumup Ko Hup and its ethnographic art website www.howka.com? Shumup Ko Hup Indian store has closed its Old Town State Park Indian shop in San Diego and taken down its California ethnographic art web site www.howka.com as a result of the bad California economy...oops, they put howka.com back up. The KUMEYAAY.INFO webmaster wishes everyone well and the best of luck to all the hard-working ethnographic California artists who supported their Indian families through the store's sales, cultural events and web-sites promotions. NATIVE AMERICAN OWNED BUSINESSSHUMUP KO HUP was owned and operated by San Diego Kumeyaay Indian families — we are a Native American owned and operated business. We make, buy and sell only genuine traditional Native American arts and crafts that are handmade by our local Indian aboriginal artists of the greater Southern California area.
SHUMUP KO HUP Indian store and Native American gift shop in Old Town State Historic Park, San Diego, was established in 2000 by Kumeyaay Indians Daleane Dumas-Adams and Eva Salazar on an original idea by Jane Dumas, a Kumeyaay elder, whose long-time dream is to establish active Kumeyaay representations within the California state historic park system.
Kumeyaay elder Jane Dumas named the store SHUMUP KO HUP — Kumeyaay translation: "Dream Come True" — based on her visions to preserve and promote the cultural heritage of the California Indigenous peoples. Jane Dumas, Jamul Indian Reservation, is an active speaker about the indigenous San Diego history in Southern California.
