According to oral history, the Acoma people lived on top of Enchanted Mesa before moving to their current village atop White Rock Mesa. In the summer, everyone would descend from the mesa to tend crops. The fields, and the springs that provided water, were in the valley below. According to legends, a thunderstorm washed away the sole access, leaving sheer rock cliffs all the way around, so they moved to a neighboring mesa, aka present-day Acoma Sky City.

Sculpture of Padre Antonio José Martínez in Taos Plaza. Martínez was born in Abiquiu in 1793. He became a parish priest in Taos in the 1820s. He witnessed the tumultuous transition from Spanish colony to Mexican territory to American territory. In terrms of work drama, Martínez went head to head with Archbishop Lamy. Evidently, Lamy didn't appreciate Martínez' criticism, because he excommunicated him in 1858.

I am not sure who put a pumpkin (or gourd) on his head. Wasn't me.
