M'Ti-Pa

M’Ti-Pa is a name used by people known as Cochimí in northern Baja California. Their country includes the coastal plateau and dry interior of the peninsula, where communities made use of plants, animals and water sources across a difficult landscape. The Yuman language associated with the M’Ti-Pa is distinct from the older central-peninsular language also called Cochimí, a reminder that similar names can cover different peoples and places.
