The Tiwa people over seven hundred years ago settled Kuaua Pueblo on the fertile banks of the Rio Grande. Francisco Vásquez de Coronado, the Spanish explorer, camped near what is now known as the Coronado Historic Site in 1540. The pueblo was abandoned during the latter part of the sixteenth century and in 1935, a square kiva was excavated. Visitors today can explore the Coronado Historic Site to learn about the Kuaua Pueblo people and see the reconstructed adobe walls. An interpretive trail meanders through the historic site, guiding visitors to ruins and the reconstructed excavated kiva.
