KUMEYAAY HISTORY TIMELINE

Understanding San Diego history is all about perspective...

Here since 10000 BC -- an editorial timeline and Kumeyaay history essay about San Diego's original native inhabitants.
600 generations in San Diego!

The earliest identified inhabitants of what is now called the County San Diego are known archaeologically as the San Dieguito Paleo-Indians. Scientific experts have tracked this group back to about 10,000 B.C. The Southern Diegueño (Tiipay) emerged from this group at about 3,000 B.C. and are the ancestors of some Kumeyaay living in this area presently.
