Enthusiasts of the Spanish revival style of architecture continue to be inspired by the Mission San Gabriel in California as another example of one of their amazing missions. It is believed that the Paleo-Indians crossed into America by means of Asia on the land bridge called Beringia. This is estimated to have taken place about 15,000 to 35,000 years ago.

Traces of these early Indians are found on Santa Rosa Island, things like the Arlington Springs Man, shows habitation in California dating back to the Ice Age. Some people even say that the first humans made their homes on the southern valley of California. When the Europeans came to the west coast of America in the 1700’s, everything was about to change.
