About 3,500 years ago Native American tribes began permanently settling in what is now the area of Yosemite National Park. They called the valley Ahwahnhee, which means "valley that looks like a gaping mouth," and themselves Ahwahneechee, "dwellers in Ahwahnee." Now the Ahwahnee Hotel, a destination hotel in Yosemite, is named after the tribe and the original name they gave the park.
