European Contact My survey not systematic (eg, Cabrillo, Manila
Galleon, Vancouver, etc..) At least 3 written accounts from Portola
Expedition… Sunday, August 20, 1769 Costanso (engineer)… `two mouths’ (Goleta Beach/Devereux)… to east
`marshes and creeks of considerable extent’ Crespi (priest, two accounts!) `good-sized inlet appearing like a sea arm,
which reaches a great way inland’… IV knoll ¼ league in length, mouth at either end… Goleta Beach mouth ` ½ of a quarter league’
Fages (soldier) `one comes in sight of a long, bare point of land, on the eastern side of which a great estuary penetrates inland by two separate arms, which are probably about half a league distant from each other. This estuary runs close to the north side of a small hill which rises on a point of land and has the appearance of an island… The estuary spreads continually over the level ground eastward, forming various swamps and ponds of considerable extent…’
