A Chumash Ap (tule
dwelling) was developed as a reminder of the Bicentennial by the Conejo
Valley Bicentennial-Centennial Commission. There is a bedrock mortar
nearby, a fossil dig, and a ceremonial fire ring blessed by the Chumash.
This is the type of shelter used by Native-Americans who lived in Ventura,
Santa Barbara and the
northwest Los Angeles counties.
