Chowchilla History
The name “Chowchilla” is derived from the indigenous American tribes of Chaushila & Yokut Indians that once lived in the area. The name evidently translates as “murderers” and is apparently a reference to the warlike nature of the Chaushila tribe. It is also to be known among the Yokuts tribes later on to be associated with “bravery”. The Chaushila Indians were inadvertently responsible for the first white men “discovering” Yosemite Valley, which occurred when they were being pursued by a band of white men. References to the tribe still abound in Chowchilla, and until 2016 the town’s high school used the moniker “Redskins” as their mascot.
