John
Johnson
Santa Barbara, California Area
John Johnson’s career is devoted to understanding the culture and history of Native Americans in south central California through the study of archaeology, archival records, and interviews with contemporary Native Americans. He has published more than 80 studies about Southern California Indians.
Dr. Johnson’s research focuses on the colonial periods at either end of the Native American experience: (1) the peopling of the New World and (2) the Spanish Mission Period of Alta California. He heads a team that has been investigating the earliest evidence for people in coastal California at the Arlington Springs site on Santa Rosa Island. Dr. Johnson is the co-writer and executive producer of a documentary film, 6 Generations, recounting the story of a Chumash family in Santa Barbara from the time of the founding of the mission until the present day.
