==History==
The city of Littleton's history dates back to the 1859 Pike's Peak Gold Rush, which brought not only gold seekers, but merchants and farmers to the community. Richard Sullivan Little was an engineer from New Hampshire that made his way out west to work on irrigation systems. Little soon decided to settle in the area at present day Littleton and brought his wife Angeline out from the East in 1862. The Littles, along with many neighbors, built the Rough and Ready Flour Mill in 1867, which provided a solid economic base in the community. By 1890, the community had grown to 245 people and the residents voted to incorporate the Town of Littleton.〔http://www.littletongov.org/history/genhist.asp〕
Littleton became widely known in 1999 when the Columbine High School massacre occurred at Columbine High School.〔
〕 News media reported that the incident happened in the city, because the school’s ZIP code is primarily associated with Littleton. The school is actually located in adjacent Columbine, an unincorporated community, which is not a place name accepted by the U.S. Postal Service;〔 by default, locations in ZIP code 80123 use “Littleton” in their mailing addresses.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Look Up a ZIP Code™ )〕 Columbine High School is in the Jefferson County school system and is not one of the Littleton Public Schools.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= School Web Sites )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= High Schools )〕
