priate words. This act won for him the regard of the Acomas. Father Ramîrez is said to have built the mission church at Acoma.15 The next incident of consequence at Acoma is the revolt of 1680, a general uprising of ail the pueblos in which ail the Spaniards in the pueblo area were either IdRed or driven out. Fray Luis Maldonado (and possibly two others) were killed at Acoma. During thé reconquest of the country by Don Diego de Vargas, Acoma was visited by this general in November, 1693. The Acomas were ready to fight, but De Vargas persuaded them to yield, and on November 4 he entered the pueblo with his priests and some soldiers, where ceremonies of submission were performed. Eighty-seven children were baptized at this time."

On thé 4th of June, 1696, Taos, Picuris, Santo Domingo, Cochiti, and Jemez revolted and JdUed five missionaries and 21 other Spaniards. The Jemez people fled to thé mountains. They sought aid from the Acomas, Zunis, and the Navahos. On the 29th of June, Capt. Miguel de Lara, with a small detachment of soldiers from Zia, and Don Fernando Durân y Châvez, thé alcalde mayor of Bernalillo, met the revolutionists in San Diego Canon (at the ruins of the pueblo of San Juan). The Spaniards routed the Indians. Eight Acoma warriors were killed and a number of the Jemez. The alliance between Acoma and Zuni was disrupted and the Jemez fled to the mountains.18

To quiet the Acomas, De Vargas marched to the pueblo, and on the 15th of August, 1696, he attacked the village, capturing five men, one of them a chief. But he did not succeed in entering the town. "Then he released the chief and resorted to persuasion, without success, finally shooting the captives, ravaging the corn fields, and retiring." 19

Don Diego de Vargas was succeeded by Pedro Rodrîguez Cubero as governor in 1696; Cubero assumed office on the 2d of July, 1697. During his tour of the west in 1699 Cubero received the submission of Acoma on the 6th of July.

ACOMA TO-DAY

Acoma's early reputation for vigorous unfriendliness to the whites has been maintained to the present day. Of course there has been no violence for many years, but Government officials and employees, representatives of religious organizations, and tourists well know the difficulties which confront a white man or woman at Acoma. The Acoma people are suspicious, distrustful, and unfriendly. In addiBenavides, Memorial, Land of Sunshine. vol. xm.
