Yozcolo

The resistance leader named Yozcolo led a revolt and several raids in and around Mission Santa Clara in the 19th century. Yozcolo freed dozens of young women being held at the mission and fled into the interior of California. After his escape from the mission, Yozcolo gathered several followers and led raids on the pueblos and ranchos around the mission. His resistance was ended by the Mexican government in 1834.
