    Default Yosemite?

    I believe, Yosemite National Park is located in east central of California.

    Yosemite means "killer”, it was named for an American Indian (Người Da Đỏ) tribal that lived in that area. I don't remember the name. Hope that’s what you’re looking for.

    Check this out about the origin of Yosemite
    http://www.yosemite.ca.us/library/or..._yosemite.html


    Yohhe'meti (Southern Miwok) or Yos.s.e'meti (Central Miwok) originally referred to the Indian tribe that lived in Yosemite Valley. Yosemite means literally “those who kill” (Yos, “to kill,” the modifier e, “one who,” and the plural suffix -meti). It was used by the surrounding Miwok tribes. The Yosemite people were referred to as killers by these surrounding tribes, who feared them. The Yosemite tribe, led by Chief Tenaya, were composed of renegades from multiple tribes, including Mono Paiute from the eastern Sierra. The Paiute were traditional enemies of the more-peaceful Miwok people.
