Of Turquoise and Adobe
The pueblo we have reached is the location the clerics spoke of, though it is not as they described. The walls are not golden, but tall and plastered white, set with turquoise mosaics around the kiva doorways. The storerooms hold maize, beans, dried peppers, woven cotton, and a fair quantity of worked turquoise and shell beads. The headmen are willing to talk, and indeed some of them have seen the lands further north and can describe what lies along the upper river. There is no legend here, but there is a place. Target Leader negotiates terms with the elders.

historical_info = seven_cities_cibola.2.historical_info The Pueblo cultures of what is now New Mexico and Arizona were trading partners with substantial reach. Turquoise from the Cerrillos hills moved south into Mesoamerica and north onto the Plains, macaw feathers came up from the Yucatan, and obsidian moved between Pueblo and Plains traders. Hawikuh, Acoma, and the Rio Grande towns were prosperous by the standards of the region, though not post-Tenochtitlan Spanish standards. The clash between Spanish ambitions and Pueblo realities resulted in what the Spanish saw as a failure and was for the Pueblo near-disaster. Nonetheless, most of the cultures involved were preserved.
