The history of Beverly Hills is the history of California itself. Quiet countryside ,Beverly Hills, California was once
populated by peaceful Indians was invaded by Spanish explorers. More than one
hundred years ago, a grant, with limits almost identical with the limits of
Beverly Hills, was assigned under the name of El Rancho Rodeo de las Aguas--"The
Ranch of the Gathering of the Water." Streams cascading down Coldwater and Benedict
Canyons (then known as Canada de las Aguas Frias and Canada de los Encinos),
gathered near the southern boundary where clear springs bubbled and a "Cienega",
or swamp, formed in the rainy season. These streams have
subsided and the Cienega is gone but the beauty of the primitive area has a
modern counterpart, Beverly Hills, today.
