Juyubit (also, Jujubit) was one of the largest villages [1] of the Tongva people. The village was located at the foot of the West Coyote Hills at the confluence of the Coyote and La Cañada Verde creeks, in present-day Buena Park and Cerritos. It was one of the largest villages in Tovaangar. [2] Alternate names of the village include: Jujubit, Jutucubit, Jutucuvit, Jutubit, Jutucunga, Utucubit, Otocubit, Uchubit, Ychubit, and Uchunga. [3]
Colonization
Records from the San Fernando and San Gabriel missions record 347 baptisms from Juyubit between 1774 and 1804. However, because of incorrect and/or inaccurate village naming records, more Juyubit villagers may have been baptized at these missions. [4] Villagers from involved in the 1785 revolt on Mission San Gabriel led by Toypurina, a medicine woman from the village of Jaichivit. [5]
One woman from Juyubit, Eulalia María, was baptized at the age of six and became a godmother as an adult. She died in 1818. [6]
By 1840, much of Juyubit's population was absorbed into Missions San Juan Capistrano and San Gabriel. [7]
Legacy
Versions of Juyubit are mentioned in the narrative legend of the late 18th—early 19th century Tongvan heroine Toypurina.
