This website is an attempt to summarize some of the most important people, events, and ideas that native peoples, Spaniards Mexicans, and Chicanos have contributed to our regional history. It draws from, and is a companion to a larger work in progress, written collaboratively and yet to be published. Here, we invite you to explore some of the highlights in our rich heritage and invite you to contribute your own story and family archives to our ongoing effort to tell the San Diego story.
Much work remains to be done, for the full story has yet to be told.
