  1. Founding a Jesuit Mission Near Tucson, 1694–1756
In view of such ingrained native cultural patterns, the clerical inspector claimed that the mission at Bac needed colonial troops to “force” the Northern Pimans to live in the pueblo, to labor in the fields, “to punish” the medicine men, and “to drive forth” undesirables.
Thus the Northern Pimans were brought back into the Spanish colonial orbit with their Apache-fighting power essentially undiminished by battle losses in what could have turned into a very bloody campaign had Ortiz Parrilla chosen to force a military decision.
The aftermath of the Northern Piman nativistic movement of 1751 appears to have directly affected the future of Tucson as a Native American settlement.

 2. Continued Jesuit Proselytizing, 1756–1767
The Northern Piman Indians dwelling along the banks of permanent streams in what became the Spanish colonial Province of Sonora had apparently developed in aboriginal times a very important fall harvest festival which they celebrated on a fixed date on or near October fourth.
In other words, Espinosa believed that Northern Pimans had to live in a compact settlement and subsist off their garden produce to be good Christians in Jesuit eyes.
