Territory
The Tribal Boundary of the Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians consists of the Native villages originating in the four regional ethno-linguistic groups located within the Simi, San Fernando, Santa Clarita, and Antelope Valleys that were forcibly enslaved at the Mission San Fernando and received the name fernandeño.


Official Territory
Tribal boundary depicted is based on the villages from which registered Fernandeño Tataviam Band of Mission Indians’ (FTBMI) tribal citizens descend. Due to the complex kinship and social exchange networks of our ancestors, the tribal boundary does not include all of the abundant locations associated with our peoples. The yellow shaded area depicts tribal lands that are significant to the FTBMI, but are culturally shared with neighboring Tribal governments due to the natural mobility of ancestral and contemporary FTBMI people.
