The Spanish & colonial Santa Fe

1999
Explores the history of Santa Fe, New Mexico, founded in 1610 as the northernmost outpost of the vast Spanish empire in the New World. In search of cities of gold, the Spanish expanded northward from Mexico, but instead of gold they found the Pueblo Indians, whom they converted to Catholicism and made Spanish citizens. Despite ongoing conflicts, the unique mix of the Spanish and Pueblo cultures left a lasting legacy that can still be seen in Sante Fe today.
