The Ohlone (formerly Costanoan) are an ethnic group whose members lived in what is now the San Francisco Bay Area and Monterey Bay areas of California until after the European discovery and settling of this area. At one time, the name "Ohlone", probably derived from a Spanish rancho called Oljon, referred to a single band who inhabited the Pacific coast near Pescadero. The name "Ohlone" may have also come from the name of an Indian village or site near modern-day San Mateo. However, since the 1960s the term is now informally extended to refer to all the native Americans who live around San Francisco Bay and Monterey Bay, replacing the term Costanoan ("coastal people"), a name given to them by Spaniard explorers. Their settlements included: Ahwaste, Altahmo, Ansaime, Aulintac, Chalon, Costaños, Kalindaruk, Karkin, Mutsun, Olhon, Romonan, Rumsen, Tamyen, Tulomo, and Wacharon, Werwersen. ...more on Wikipedia about "Ohlone"
