Mission Indians: Cuyapaipe Community of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Cuyapaipe Reservation |
Posted on Friday, July 20 @ 20:32:47 CDT | |
Cuyapaipe Community of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Cuyapaipe Reservation
... KEYWORDS:Cuyapaipe Community of Diegueno Mission Indians of the Cuyapaipe Reservation Kumeyaay Nation
The Cuyapaipe Reservation was established on February 10, 1891, following the executive order of January 12, 1891. The Cuyapaipe Reservation is located 10 miles north of Interstate 8 and 68 miles east of San Diego in Pine Valley and the Laguna Mountains in the southeastern part of San Diego County.
The pines and evergreens of the south slopes of Mt. Laguna spread their cover onto the remote lands of the Cuyapaipe, otherwise known as the Ewiiaapaap. Its 4,156* acres, as is true of several nearby reservations, is not “developed.” Access is disapproved on paths that are known only to the two or three residents and a few locals of Mt. Laguna.
In 1986 the Ewiiaapaap Band accepted 8.6 acres into trust as the “Little Cuyapaipe” trust land that is located north of Interstate 8 off the West Willows Road exit. They have since leased the land to the Southern Indian Health Council for $1 rent for 25 years to host the SIHC Clinic.
Four tribal groupings make up the indigenous Indians of San Diego County:
the Kumeyaay/Diegueño, the Luiseño, the Cupeño, and the Cahuilla. The Diegueño are the largest group, and are classified in the Yuman language family, Hokan stock. They are divided into the Ipai (the northern dialectical form) and the Tipai (the southern dialectical form). The Southern Diegueño are known in their language as the Kumeyaay. For more information on the language, see Learn to Speak Kumeyaay. Some research shows that the Kumeyaay are the same as the Kamia, which are the Yuman-speaking Indians of Imperial County, over the mountains east of San Diego County.
The Luiseño, Cupeño, and Cahuilla Indians belong to the Cupan subgroup of the Takic language family of Uto-Aztecan. This language is sometimes called Southern California Shoshonean. They live in the northern part of San Diego County, and are related linguistically and culturally to the Juaneno, Gabrielino, Serrano, and Kitanemuk Indians. The Cahuilla are primarily in the desert areas of Riverside County, although they occupy the far northeasternmost reservation of San Diego County, called Los Coyotes. All of the Indians who traditionally lived in the San Diego area when the Spanish arrived in 1769 are called Mission Indians.
There are 18 Indian reservations in San Diego County, more than in any other county in the United States. However, most people have only heard of the reservations with successful bingo and gaming operations, which are the reservations of Sycuan, Barona, and Viejas. The 1990 Census of Population and Housing lists around 2,200 Indians living on 17 of the reservations in the County, although there are many others living in the urban areas. The reservations may be divided by the following tribal groups, or rancherias.
Diegueño:
Barona, Campo, Capitan Grande (unoccupied), Cuyapaipe, Inaja-Cosmit, Jamul, La Posta, Manzanita, Mesa Grande, San Pasqual, Santa Ysabel, Sycuan, and Viejas.
Luiseño:
La Jolla, Pauma, and Rincon
Cupeño:
Pala
Cahuilla:
Los Coyotes
