Peoples of the Mesa Verde Region
Pueblo People TodayThere are more than 60,000 Pueblo Indians living in the Southwest today. Roughly three-quarters live in 18 pueblo communities in or near the Rio Grande valley in northwestern New Mexico. The remaining one-quarter live in the Pueblo of Zuni, located near the Arizona–New Mexico border, and in several pueblos on the Hopi mesas in northeastern Arizona. All the pueblos are located on reservations of various sizes that include not just the pueblos themselves but tracts of land used for the communal good of tribal members. |
