Pueblo Indians are not Apaches




Along the Rio Grande in northern New Mexico are several abandoned Pueblo villages.

Pictured here are the remains of the old village at the bottom of a place called Frijoles Canyon. You can get dizzy looking up at the cliff dwellings.




There are still lots of Pueblo people in New Mexico. The Pueblos were village dwellers, unlike Jicarilla Apache Indians who didn't stay in one place, but instead followed the buffalo herds with their tipis.
