- Title
Laguna Pueblo History Revisited.
- Authors
FLINT, RICHARD
- Abstract
The article looks at the history of Pueblo Indians in the Río San José valley, New Mexico. It presents a case for the view that Laguna Indians were settled there by the 1300s and carrying out irrigation agriculture by the 1580s, much earlier than previously thought, citing archaeological and documentary evidence. Topics include Laguna hydraulic engineering, current litigation over land and water rights in the area, and the validity of Spanish colonial-era land titles, termed Cruzate grants.
