— Commemorative Walkway Park —
Seeking to expand the domain of the King of Spain in 1540, Francisco Vquez de Coronado led an expedition of over 1,000 men and women north from Mexico into what is now Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. The Spanish explorers, in search of the mythical, wealthy "seven cities of Cibola," found little in the way of precious metals. But perhaps more importantly, they discovered groups of Indians, whom they labeled "Pueblos" due to their concentration in pueblos, or towns.| HM Number | HM1FX4 |
