Ancestral Puebloans inhabited the area from 500-1200 A.D, followed by the Paiute, who were in residence in

1858 when Mormon missionaries arrived. The Paiute called the area

Mukuntuweap which means “straight canyon” in Southern Pauite.

In 1909, U.S. President William Howard Taft named the area the

Mukuntuweap National Monument. In 1918, the acting director of the newly created National Park Service changed

the park's name to Zion and on November 19, 1919 the United States Congress established the monument

as Zion National Park.

On March 18, 1918, Zion quadrupled in size and changed from Mukuntuweap National Monument to Zion National Monument.
