Welcome to Pueblo
Indian .com , a website covering the prehistory, and history of
the Pueblo Indian civilization. In addition to our historical
overview, we have included modern-day Pueblo Indian resources and
links sections, so that you may learn more about the Pueblo culture,
and/or your own heritage.
There are four tribes of Eastern Pueblo Indians, the Keres, the Tewa, Tiwa, and Towa, while the Western Pueblos are represented by two tribes, the Hopi,and the Zuni.
One of the main goals behind this
website is to generate an interest in the Pueblo Indian culture, both
in members of the Pueblo tribe, and an international audience.
Keeping history alive is important if we are to achieve a strong sense
of self, and of community.
Measures
have been taken by the New
Mexico Commision on Indian Affairs to maintain a record of Pueblo
legends by specially appointed Individuals who speak both English, and
their respective languages. This is in the hopes of making
Pueblo legends and stories to the general population; we here at
Pueblo Indian .com are taking this initiative further by asking you to
discuss Pueblo history, and legends in our kiva, a discussion forum
which is open to all.
We plan to
add more information as it becomes available, and are open to corrections,
suggestions, and content from our visitors. Submissions must be
information which is either in the public domain, or original
material, which will be subjected to approval by our editors.
Whether
you are doing a school project, or you're just interested in Pueblo
Indian culture, we hope you'll enjoy our site and keep coming back for
updates.
