Kuaua Pueblo in Three Views

(Rio Grande Anasazi, Ancestral village of
Sandia and Isleta Pueblos,
Coronado State Monument, Bernalillo, New Mexico)

The village was located on the west side of the Rio Grande across from present-day Bernillio, NM--about 17 miles north of present-day Albuquerque, NM. The place had more than 1200 rooms. Construction was begun in the early fourteenth century. The place was abandoned shortly after the violent arrival of the Spanish in 1540-41. Most of the inhabitants were victims of genocide and Euro-viruses.
