Cucamonga (also, Coco Mongo, Cucamungabit, and Cucomogna) is a former Tongva-Gabrieleño Native American settlement in Los Angeles County, California.[1]

Its precise location is unknown but was probably within the San Bernardino Valley, within the bounds of what became the Rancho Cucamonga, now City of Cucamonga, California.[2]
