	PBS - THE WEST - Francisco Vázquez de Coronado
		Coronado sent out parties that ranged all the way to the Colorado River on the present border between California and Arizona, exploring the Grand Canyon and much of what is now New Mexico.
		Coronado himself led a party in search of the city of Quivira and its mythic riches, into what is now Kansas, but found only a small village of what were probably Wichita Indians.
		Coronado managed to resume his governorship, but within several years he was found guilty of numerous atrocities against Indians under his authority.

		While Coronado was establishing himself at Zuñi, another expedition, by sea, under the command of Hernando de Alarçon, reached the mouth of the Colorado and explored the course of the river for about two hundred miles inland, but found it impossible to communicate with Coronado, and returned to the Mexican coast.

		Coronado was governor of Nueva Galicia (New Galicia, the contemporary Mexican states of Jalisco, Sinaloa and Nayarit).
		Coronado and Viceroy Antonio de Mendoza invested large sums of private money into the venture, and Mendoza being Coronado's friend and fellow investor appointed him as the commander of an expedition to go and find the seven golden cities and take all of their gold.

	Coronado's Journey Through New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas
		After Coronado realized that no gold was to be found in any of the six or seven towns of the Cibola province (the present day Zuni Reservation of west central New Mexico), and after the main army arrived, Coronado moved in the last weeks of 1540.
		Many of the soldiers, not to mention Coronado's wife and Viceroy Mendoza, had invested their fortunes in the expedition, and the only hope of making good on this investment was to find gold, jewels, or other transportable wealth that could be plundered from the native people.
		Coronado's expedition remains a paradox of history and an object lesson in not capitalizing on a discovery.
