| Abstract | Kuruvungna is a former Native American village/ springs, currently located on the site of University High School in West Los Angeles. The first European land expedition was encountered there by the inhabitants. It is in a naturalized state, and the descendants of the Indian occupants hold religious and community events there. Most of site is covered in non-native plants. There are no visible signs of previous occupation. The continuing significance of the site is as a Traditional Cultural Property for the Gabrielino/ Tongva, and secondarily as a record of human and plant migration to the area. The Gabrielino/ Tongva do not consider study of the archaeology of the site as appropriate. Despite the site's obvious historic "significance", questions have been raised about its "integrity." This thesis intends explores that issue of integrity with regards to Native American Traditional Cultural Properties, and their eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. |
