As a temporary resident of the southwest, I realized that I knew very little about the native peoples of this place. This was the perfect introduction to the 19 Pueblo tribes of New Mexico. I hope I can pay some of them a visit on my next trip to the region.

Quirkybookworm Oooh! I‘ve got to get this! I‘ve lived in the areas by rio grande for a long time. Love colorful history there. Used to see their celebration also. 5y
