===Native American=== For over 8,000 years, the site of Arcadia was part of the homeland of the [[Tongva people]] ("Gabrieliño" tribe), a [[Indigenous peoples of California|Californian Native American tribe]] whose territory spanned the greater [[Los Angeles Basin]], and the San Gabriel and [[San Fernando Valley]]s. Their fluid borders stretched between the [[Santa Susana Mountains]], [[San Bernardino Mountains]], and [[San Gabriel Mountains]] in the north; the [[Santa Monica Mountains]] and [[Simi Hills]] in the west; the [[San Jacinto Mountains]] and [[Santa Ana Mountains]] in the east; and the coast and [[Catalina Island, California|Catalina Island]] (''Pimu'') in the south. A [[:Category:Tongva populated places|Tongva settlement]] site within present-day Arcadia was known as [[Alyeupkigna, California|Alyeupkigna]] (or Aluupkenga).<ref>McCawley, William.
