However, followed by a large feast to give thanks for their Oñate clearly recorded that the pueblo he renamed Socorro in 1598 was originally called “Teipana.” The relationship between these two pueblos — and two Socorros — has confused historians for years. Spanish documents, and the fairly recent discovery and excavation of a Piro pueblo near Luis Lopez, have clarified this once murky chapter of Socorro’s history. This two-part article is the story of how Teipana became the first Socorro, and how and why it moved to the town of Socorro we know today.

  • The Piro and Bosque Del Apache Jan 7-8, 2017
    The Piro and Bosque del Apache Jan 7-8, 2017 The 230,000-acre National Wildlife Refuge of the Bosque del Apache is best known these days as one of the most important migratory stops in all of the Americas. Sandhill cranes and snow geese flock by the thousands to the area every winter. We’ll take advantage of this with our own viewings and expert interpretation during the trip. This area was home to the Piros, who once lived in the Rio Grande Valley north and south of Socorro and in adjacent parts of the Salinas Basin. Dr. Michael Bletzer, a renowned expert on the Piro, will guide us through the most important sites and talk about whom the Piro were, where they went and why. He will also offer answers to other similar big questions. When the Spanish first entered New Mexico, the Piros formed one of the largest Puebloan groups. In the mid-to-late 1620s, they were visited by Franciscan missionaries and “converted and saved.” We will visit some of the recently excavated pueblos where Michael has been working. The Piros lived in a number of pueblos along the Rio Grande and the southern periphery of the Salinas Basin. “Socorro” means aid or help, and was a name given to two Piro pueblos by the Spaniards. The Piros were visited by Coronado’s expedition in 1540/41, by Chamuscado in 1581/82, by Espejo in 1582/83, and by Oñate in 1598. Missionary work began in earnest in the mid-1620s under the auspices of fray Alonso de Benavides.

Surveyor Lt. William Emory wrote in his diary: “Arrived at the town of Pulvidera, which we found, as its name implies, covered with dust.” Lt. Emory was correct. Polvadera is a rendition of the Spanish word polvoriento or pulverdero meaning “dusty” or “pulverized dirt.” It is believed the name Polvadera may also be based on the name of an old Piro Indian pueblo in the area of a similar-sounding name. The actual name and spelling of the town has changed over the years.

Sixty years later, the Piro pueblos lay in ruins, the last of them abandoned in the wake of the Pueblo Revolt. Today the Piros and their place in New Mexican history are often overlooked.
