Chokishgna (also, Chokisgna and alternatively referenced as Chibugna)[1] is a former Tongva village located at what is now Bell Gardens, California.[2] The village declined with the growth of Mission San Gabriel, which was located at the site of the nearby village of Toviscanga in 1776.[3] The original village site was located at the later site of a jabonería established in 1832 by Lemuel Carpenter,[4] which is currently the site of the city of Bell Gardens.[2]
