Pichilingue Harbour, La Paz, Baja California, Mexico. History. Although the city was officially founded in 1535, its area had been known by hunter and gatherer peoples since Neolithic times. Rock paintings and other artifacts dating as far back as 10,000 years ago attest to their presence in most regions of the Baja.
