Pueblo
of Santa Clara
Founded
around the fourteen century, Santa Clara traces its ancestry to Puye,
an abandoned site of cave dwellings on the Pajarito
Plateau.
Increasing tensions with the Spanish led to its participation in the
Pueblo Revolt of 1680. The mission church, once
thought
to be the narrowest of its kind, has been reconstructed several
times since the 17th century.
