Statement of Historic Contexts Summary: This Multiple Property Documentation Form describes the oldest wagon road in North America. This road was developed by travelers, caravans, and expeditions over most of the sixteenth century, but it reached its full historical length with the passage of the Oate expedition of 1598. This colonizing expedition added a northern segment to the Camino Real so that it extended from Mexico City to the silver district of northern Chihuahua (the community of Santa Bárbara) to Ohkay Owingeh (San Juan Pueblo) in New Mexico. After 1609, when the Viceroy of New Spain ordered New Mexico Governor Pedro de Peralta to establish a new capital city, the new settlement of Santa Fe became the generally recognized terminus of the Camino. The northern segment of the Camino Real (the portion in New Mexico), which we are here proposing for listing, was established by Juan de Oate ten years before the first English colonists landed at Jamestown, Virginia. The Camino Real was the connection between Spain’s northernmost province and Mexico City, the capital of the viceroyalty of New Spain. There were various caminos reales in Spanish America. The term “camino real” means literally a royal road, but these roads were neither authorized by the king nor laid out by government officials. They were trails defined and developed over time for the use of colonists, merchants, ecclesiastics, government officials, and visitors [Jones 1999:342]. They served as primary routes for transportation, communication, and colonization. The name “Camino Real de Tierra Adentro” is used throughout the modern literature of the road. It is a designation that may have been commonly used in Mexico City and New Spain. It was intended to distinguish this road from other caminos reales [Simmons 1993:29]. Alexander von Humboldt, writing from his travels and observations in New Spain in 1803–1804, says that “los caminos más frequentados y más importantes para el comercio son . .” [here he lists the road from Mexico City to Veracruz; the road from Mexico City to Acapulco; the road from Mexico City to Guatemala, and finally the fourth] “El de Mexico a Durango y a Santa Fe de Nuevo Mexico, vulgarmente llamado el camino de tierra adentro” – that is, the roads most used and most important for commerce are . fourth, the road from Mexico City to Durango and to Santa Fe in New Mexico, popularly [or commonly] called el camino de tierra adentro” [Humboldt 1966:462]. The qualifying phrase “de tierra adentro” was likely not used in New Mexico. As Humboldt and Simmons explain, this name was used in central Mexico to refer to the far north, but it was a common, not an official, designation. Simmons has not found it in documents or correspondence [Simmons, personal communication, 2009]. In New Mexico, any place beyond New Spain’s northernmost frontier, but Mexico in particular, was referred to as “tierra afuera” [David H. Snow, personal communication, 2009]. Snow notes that his review of more than four hundred original colonial and Mexican period documents has not produced any reference to 3 NPS Form 10-900-a (Rev. 8/2002) OMB No. 1024-0018 (Expires 5-31-2012) United States Department of the Interior Put Here Camino Real in New Mexico, AD 1598–1881 National Park Service Name of Multiple Property Listing New Mexico National Register of Historic Places State Continuation Sheet Section E Page 2 “tierra adentro.” “Tierra afuera” does appear several times—for example, in a matter of inheritance in 1739, in which the deceased is said to have brought certain personal property from “tierra afuera,” most likely the interior of Mexico [Snow ibid. citing SANM II:427, Roll 7, fr. 1023-25]. It is unlikely on its face that New Mexicans would call their own homeland “tierra adentro,” a description that views New Mexico or the far north of New Spain in general, from a distance. A sixteenth-century route connecting Gijn, Leon, and Madrid was referred to as a camino real. The route through the Isthmus of Panama that linked Panama with Nombre de Dios and Portobelo was also referred to as a camino real. The pre-European roads of Peru remained in use after the arrival of the Spaniards and were sometimes called caminos reales. The relationship between prehistoric trails such as the Rio Grande Pueblo Indian Trail and the Camino Real is somewhat comparable (see below, Context 2, pp. 19–21). The designation camino real is also more broadly understood to include the maritime routes that connected Spain’s possessions in the New World and the Far East (e.g., the sea lane to Manila, in the Philippines; Comité Nacional Espaol de ICOMOS: 53). A Manila galleon (la Nao de la China) arrived at Acapulco once a year, bringing goods from the Far East, such as porcelain, some of which were then transported up the Camino Real after ca.

From the rio to the sierra: An environmental history of the Middle Rio Grande Basin. General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-5. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 440 p. Abstract Various human groups have greatly affected the processes and evolution of Middle Rio Grande Basin ecosystems, especially riparian zones, from A.D. 1540 to the present. Overgrazing, clear-cutting, irrigation farming, fire suppression, intensive hunting, and introduction of exotic plants have combined with droughts and floods to bring about environmental and associated cultural changes in the Basin. As a result of these changes, public laws were passed and agencies created to rectify or mitigate various environmental problems in the region. Although restoration and remedial programs have improved the overall “health” of Basin ecosystems, most old and new environmental problems persist.

CHAPTER 7 The Enduring Hopi Peter Iverson “What then is the meaning of the tricentennial observance? It is a reaffirmation of continuity and hope for the collective Hopi future.” The Hopi world is centered on and around three mesas in northeastern Arizona named First, Sec- ond, and Third. It is at first glance a harsh and rugged land, not always pleasing to the untrained eye. Prosperity here can only be realized with patience, determination, and a belief in tomorrow.1 For over 400 years, the Hopis have confronted the incursion of outside non-Indian societies. The Spanish entered Hopi country as early as 1540. Then part of Francisco Vásquez de Coronado’s explor- ing party invaded the area with characteristic boldness and superciliousness. About twenty Spaniards, including a Franciscan missionary, confronted some of the people who resided in the seven villages that now comprise the Hopi domain, and under the leadership of Pedro de Tovar, the Spanish over- came Hopi resistance, severely damaging the village of Kawaiokuh, and winning unwilling surrender.

REEVE CHAPTER IX MESCALERO APACHE The Southern Apache Indians in New Mexico were divided into two groups: The Gila, that lived west of the Rio Grande, and the Mescaleros that lived east of the river, in the White and Sacramento mountains. The Mescaleros, about 600 or 700 in number, suffered from internal dissen­ sion and had split into two bands; the more troublesome group, known by the name of the Agua Nuevo band, under chiefs Mateo and Verancia, lived in the vicinity of Dog Canyon, in the Sacramento mountains. The White moun­ tain group under Cadette constituted the bulk of the tribe and busied themselves part of the time with farming opera­ tions at Alamogordo, about seventy miles southwest of Fort Stanton and west of the Sacramento mountains.! The Mescaleros constituted the same problem as did the other Indian tribes, and Superintendent CoIlins pro­ posed to adopt the same procedure in dealing with them; namely, removal from the settlements to a reservation where they would be out of contact with the white settlers.

This is one of many related papers that were included in the 2012 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download.

  • Draft Long Walk National Historic Trail Feasibility Study / Environmental Impact Statement Arizona • New Mexico
    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Draft Long Walk National Historic Trail Feasibility Study / Environmental Impact Statement Arizona • New Mexico DRAFT LONG WALK NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL FEASIBILITY STUDY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT Thanks to the New Mexico Humanities Council and the Western National Parks and Monuments Association for their important contributions to this study. DRAFT LONG WALK NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL FEASIBILITY STUDY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT Apache, Coconino, Navajo Counties, Arizona; Bernalillo, Cibola, De Baca, Guadalupe, Lincoln, McKinley, Mora, Otero, Santa Fe, Sandoval, Torrance, Valencia Counties, New Mexico The purpose of this study is to evaluate the suitability and feasibility of designating the routes known as the “Long Walk” of the Mescalero Apache and the Navajo people (1862-1868) as a national historic trail under the study provisions of the National Trails System Act (Public Law 90-543). This study provides necessary information for evaluating the national significance of the Long Walk, which refers to the U.S. Army’s removal of the Mescalero Apache and Navajo people from their homelands to the Bosque Redondo Reservation in eastern New Mexico, and for potential designation of a national historic trail. Detailed administrative recommendations would be developed through the subsequent preparation of a comprehensive management plan if a national historic trail is designated. The three criteria for national historic trails, as defined in the National Trails System Act, have been applied and have been met for the proposed Long Walk National Historic Trail. The trail routes possess a high degree of integrity and significant potential for historical interest based on historic interpretation and appreciation.

  • New Mexico's Tribal Collaboration
    1 New Mexico’s Tribal Collaboration Act: What are the Impacts of a Legislative Imperative for State And Tribal Relations?1 By Linda Moon Stumpff PhD Abstract: The 23 Tribes of New Mexico have a long history of intergovernmental relations beginning with inter-tribal relationships among diverse Tribes and extending to the periods of Spanish colonial rule, Mexican rule, and finally establishing the federal relationship with the United States. The 23 recognized Tribes constitute over 10% of the State’s population. Tribes are represented in both legislative and executive branches of New Mexico today in a continuously evolving relationship. Although the relationship continues to be strengthened through the self-determination and self-governance initiatives carried out by Tribes, it has also become politicized. This case explores the history of the development of tribal relationships with the State of New Mexico, the resulting impacts, and lessons about intergovernmental relationships. A Brief History This case explores the question of how state government-to-government relationships affect both tribal and state sovereignty and the conditions that impact the effectiveness of state-tribal institutional development in New Mexico. Many different models for state-tribal relations exist and more continue to emerge (Kaufmann, et. aI., Smith, 2018). In New Mexico formal state-tribal relations began in 1953 when the Commission on Indian Affairs and the Office of Indian Affairs were created by legislative statute. A major change occurred when Governor Richardson elevated the Director of the Office of Indian Affairs to the level of his Cabinet in 2003. This was the culmination of years of changing federal policy and the increasing importance of state-tribal relations.
