— Commemorative Walkway Park —
In the seventeenth century New Mexico was plagued by drought, conflicts between civil and church authorities, and extreme demands placed by the Spanish settlers on the native population. The latter situation caused a deterioration so severe that by 1680, the Pueblo Indians under the leadership of Pop? and others, revolted against the Spanish and succeeded in driving them completely out of New Mexico. During this revolt, 21 Franciscan priests and friars lost their lives. The monument on this hill commemorates their martyrdom.| HM Number | HM1FY3 |
