The Spanish Southwest: The Last Conquistadors of San Felipe del Nuevo México

This episode of the American Southwest Podcast is the 9th in the series about the original Native American inhabitants of the region and specifically about the Spanish Discovery, Exploration of, & Conquering of the territory of New Mexico and the lands adjacent. I discuss Esteban, Coronado, The Seven Golden Cities of Cibola, The Last Conquistador that is Oñate, The Puebloans, the Church, & a whole lot more. It also sets up the factors and reasons behind the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, which will be covered in the next episode. This is a long one, but it’s exciting, engaging, and chock full of Land of Enchantment history, stories, quotes, & more.
