An Appellation Like No Other

September 2, 2022 by Michael Chatfield

The provenance of the name "Cachagua" (pronounced Ka SHOU wa) is lost to the sands of time. "However," according to the Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District, "its use goes back to the 1850s with the spelling ‘Jassagua,' which likely has native Esselen or Spanish influences."
