Topic: Marcos de Niza


  
  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Zuni Indians
This glowing description of the region led to the expedition of de Coronado in 1540, the little army being accompanied by Fray Juan de Padilla.
The first great exploration of the Pueblo country was by de Coronado in 1540-2.
Seventeen years later Juan de Onate visited this region, and, dividing it up into districts, had each district entrusted to the care of a missionary, thus definitively bringing the Pueblo into contact with civilization; but the scarcity of priests available retarded the spread of Christian truth.
