This is a clarification.  In class yesterday I mentioned that the original name of the modern city of Los Angeles was La Ciudad de Nuestra Se<\/span>\u00f1<\/i>ora de los Angeles<\/i>, but after some brief<\/span> research I wish to correct that to El Pueblo de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora, la Reina de los Angeles del Rio Porciuncula<\/i>, or “The Town of Our Lady, Queen of the Angels of the Porciuncula River”.<\/p>\n

This was L.A.’s name during its period as a mission town under the Spanish Empire and subsequently under the Republic of Mexico, after the war for independence.   The Porciuncula River, is better known today as the Los Angeles River, although it was itself originally named El R\u00edo de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora La Reina de Los \u00c1ngeles de Porci\u00fancula.<\/i><\/p>\n

So if we wanted to get technical about it we could say that the original name of the city today known as Los Angeles is : <\/i>El Pueblo de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora, la Reina de los Angeles del Rio <\/i>de Nuestra Se\u00f1ora La Reina de Los \u00c1ngeles de Porci\u00fancula. <\/i><\/p>\n
