Brief History of Eugene: The Kalapuya Indians were the first people to live in the Willamette Valley.

Archeological evidence indicates that the Kalapuya occupied the area for several centuries. A hunting and gathering people, the Kalapuya frequently burned the grasses of the valley to clear brush and provide a better habitat for the game and vegetation they depended on for food. By the time the first white settlers arrived, the valley was an open grassy prairie with isolated white oaks and other trees. Eugene City was incorporated in 1862. Next to the actual founding of the city, the event which has probably had the most profound effect on the history of Eugene has to be the founding of the University of Oregon in 1872.
