The Sacred Site/Shellmound Peace Walk will span 270 miles of the Bay Area. The walk is to bring about awareness and education to the communities in our area about the vast historical resources that exist here, but more importantly, the continued desecration and destruction of our ancestral burial sites. Burial sites and Shellmounds have existed on this land since time immemorial, some of them are older than the pyramids in Egypt. We are humbly asking for your presence during this walk for peace, as we remember our ancestors and pray at the sites that are the resting places for Ohlone people.
