About Picuris Pueblo, New Mexico
Picuris Pueblo is a Tiwa pueblo of 83 people in Taos County. It lies 18 miles south of Taos Pueblo, on the western slope of the Sangre de Cristo range. Its people once lived in Chaco Canyon, then in a village of about 3,000 now called Pot Creek, near Taos. They moved to their present home along the Rio Pueblo about 1250 CE, and by the 15th century it ranked among the biggest of all the Tiwa pueblos.
In 1680 the pueblos of New Mexico rose against Spanish rule, and the fighting went on until 1696. The Picuris people scattered and left their pueblo empty until 1706, when they came back and joined the Spanish against Comanche and Apache raids. A long peace followed, and in the mid-1920s the pueblo became self-governing again, with its traditional ceremonies held through the year.
“The Picuris make a distinctive pottery from clay only known to the Picuris at this time. It is a sericite mica clay which gives the clay a distinctive golden sheen.”
- Mountain warrior placeIn their own Tiwa language, the people call the pueblo P'įwweltha, which means either "mountain warrior place" or "mountain pass place." The Spanish explorer Don Juan de Oñate gave it the name Pikuria, meaning "those who paint," and the English name grew from it.
- San Lorenzo's Day, August 10The people built the San Lorenzo de Picurís church of adobe by 1776, and it was restored in the 21st century. The pueblo's biggest feast honors the same saint. The Sunset Dance comes on August 9, and the next day people young and old run races.
- Where two rivers meetThe Rio Santa Barbara, Tuikwepapama in Tiwa, and the Rio Pueblo, Telpupápamá, come together near the pueblo and become Embudo Creek, which runs on to the Rio Grande. The pueblo sits at an average elevation of more than 7,000 feet.
- Buffalo and a Santa Fe hotelIn 1991 the tribe opened the Hotel Santa Fe in Santa Fe, along with the Amaya Restaurant, which serves Native American food. By 2014 the pueblo was raising a growing herd of buffalo, and it belongs to the Intertribal Buffalo Council.
