Sa’ Cumn’e Plaza
Sa’ Cumn’e means “Big House” in the Miwok Language
And was an early name for the Sacramento area
This plaza is dedicated to the Native Americans
who walked this land before us and inspire current
generations to carry forth their traditions.
From Placer County to Yosemite and Mount Diablo
(Spirit Mountain) to the Sierra Range, the Miwok
gathered to live, hunt and fish.
Where you now stand was once a large village.
Analysis of the artifacts uncovered here established
that this location has been inhabited for the last
8500 years.
Marker can be reached from I Street, on the right when traveling west.
