“Isxchenta” is known as Point Lobos

 


 The area in/around Point Lobos is known by many of the local indigenous peoples as “Isxchenta” (pronounced EESH-hen-tah). The Rumsen, Esselen, and KaKoon Ta Ruk peoples, who still live in the area today, have kept their cultures alive despite many attempts by settlers to erase them.
