[American Spanish, from Spanish, people, pueblo, from Latin populus, people; see public.]Word History: The word pueblo ultimately comes from the Latin word meaning "people," populus, also the source of other English words like population and even people itself, by way of Old French pueple. As the spoken Latin of Spain developed into the Spanish language, Latin populus became Spanish pueblo, meaning "town, village," as well as "nation, people." The 16th-century Spanish explorers who visited the area naturally used this word to refer to the distinctive adobe and stone villages of the Pueblo peoples, in which some buildings rose as high as five stories. Pueblo first appears in English as a word for the distinctive villages of the Pueblo peoples, and it later came to be used to refer to the peoples living in the villages.

Pueblo
Pueblo (pwĕb`lō, pyo͞oĕb`lō), city (1990 pop. 98,640), seat of Pueblo co., S central Colo., on the Arkansas River in the foothills of the Rockies; inc. 1885. It is the center of shipping, retail, and industry for the irrigated Arkansas valley farm area. One of the country's largest steel plants is nearby, as are coal fields and abundant timber. Agricultural products include cattle, wheat, beans, corn, and sorghum. Traditionally a steelmaking center, Pueblo's economy diversified greatly in the 1990s. A trading post, called Pueblo, was established there in 1842, followed by a temporary Mormon settlement (1846–47). The city was laid out in 1860. After a 1921 flood, levees were constructed. The Pueblo Dam and Reservoir, part of a reclamation project serving the Arkansas and Fryingpan rivers, were completed in the 1980s. They are designed to provide irrigation, diversion, and power, as well as flood control. Pueblo is the seat of Colorado State Univ.–Pueblo and the headquarters for San Isabel National Forest. A large U.S. army ordnance depot is nearby.
Pueblo, name given by the Spanish to the sedentary Native Americans who lived in stone or adobe communal houses in what is now the SW United States. The term pueblo is also used for the villages occupied by the Pueblo. The prehistoric Ancestral Pueblo settlements, also known as the Anasazi and Mogollon cultures, extended southward from S Utah and S Colorado into Arizona, New Mexico, and adjacent territory in Mexico. The transition from Archaic (see Americas, antiquity and prehistory of theAmericas, antiquity and prehistory of the,

A.D., when corn, squash, and beans were widely adopted; the trio of foods is still used by the Pueblo. Although agriculture provided the bulk of the diet for these early populations, hunting and gathering was an important source of additional foodstuffs. Pottery manufacture began about A.D. 400 and was used for cooking and water storage. Clothing was woven from cotton, grown in warmer areas, and yucca fiber. Early houses among the Ancestral Pueblo peoples were pit houses, which were replaced by adobe and stone surface dwellings throughout the region by the end of the first millennium A.D. Villages were variable in size and architectural content, but most included circular, often subterranean structures known as kivas (apparently a derivation of the pit house) and storage pits for grains. Large pueblos were found at Chaco Canyon, dating from the 9th to early 12th cent., and at Mesa Verde, where multistoried cliff houses were inhabited in the 12th and 13th cent.; a great lunar observatory was built at Chimney Rock, S Colo., in the 11th cent. Changing climatic conditions forced the abandonment of much of the region by the early 14th cent., with populations migrating to their present-day locations in the Rio Grande valley and a few other isolated areas (e.g., the HopiHopi

However, the Pueblo lost 347 of their number in one attack on Santa Fe. Fearing Spanish reprisal, villages were abandoned for better fortified sites. In 1692 De Vargas, with the cooperation of some Pueblo leaders, reconquered the Pueblo in New Mexico. The Western Pueblo, however, including the Hopi, remained independent. The Pueblo have the oldest settlements N of Mexico, dating back 700 years for the still-occupied Hopi, Zuñi, and Acoma pueblos. The Europeans who settled in the Southwest adopted the adobe structures and compact village plans of the Pueblo. The Pueblo, for their part, adopted many domestic animals and assorted crafts from the Old World, including blacksmithing and woodworking.

The status of women among both the Western and the Eastern Pueblo is high, but there are differences related to the different social systems of each.

Among the Eastern Pueblo, there are bilateral extended families, patrilineal clans, and male-owned houses and land; warfare and hunting as well as healing and exorcism are more important than among the Western Pueblo. The Spanish added new elements to the government in the form of civil officers, but the de facto government and ceremonial organization remained native. The Bureau of Indian Affairs introduced elected officials in Santa Clara, Laguna, Zuñi, and Isleta, and the Hopi have an elected council on the tribal level. The Kachina and other secret societies dealing with war, agriculture, and healing still carry out their complicated rituals and dances: for some occasions, the public is invited. In 1990 there were some 55,000 Pueblo in the United States, the largest groups being the Hopi, Zuñi, Laguna, and Acoma. Bibliography See E. P. Dozier, The Pueblo Indians of North America (1970); R. Silverberg, The Pueblo Revolt (1970); J. U. Terrell, Pueblos, Gods, and Spaniards (1973); A. Ortiz, ed., Handbook of Indians of North America: Vol. 9, Southwest (1979); L. Cordell, Prehistory of the Southwest (1984). Pueblo the name given in the 16th century by the Spanish to a group of Indian tribes in the southwestern part of what is now the United States. Population, approximately 35,000 (1967, estimate). The Pueblos are quite diverse linguistically; their languages include Hopi, Zuñi, Keres, and Tanoan. Spanish was the second language until the middle of the 20th century; now it is being replaced by English. Most Pueblo Indians regard themselves as Catholics, although many ancient cults and ceremonies have been preserved. The Pueblos are the descendants of an ancient farming population that lived to the north of present-day Mexico and that by the 11th century had attained a high level of culture. Their culture was marked by irrigation farming; a complex building technology; weaving; pottery-making; and the working of copper, silver, turquoise, and emeralds. In the 15 th century the Pueblos settled in the valleys of the Rio Grande and its tributaries and in the arid plateau regions of the present-day states of New Mexico and Arizona. In these new areas the Indians engaged in farming (corn, beans, squash, cotton, tobacco) and handicrafts (pottery-making, weaving, basketry). The Rio Grande, or eastern, Pueblos and the western Pueblos of the plateau regions had different levels of socioeconomic development. The former were irrigation farmers who stood on the threshold of a class society; the latter engaged in dry-valley and flood-irrigation farming and, to a considerable extent, preserved the institutions of a maternal-clan system. In 1598, Pueblo lands were declared Spanish possessions. The Pueblos revolted and drove out the Spanish in 1680, but Spanish rule was restored in 1693. The Pueblos borrowed livestock raising (mostly sheep), the cultivation of wheat, and horticulture from the Spanish. In 1821 the territory inhabited by the Pueblos became part of Mexico. In 1848, as a result of the Mexican War (1846–48), the land was seized by the United States. The best lands, pastures, and irrigation canals were taken away from the Indians, thus severely damaging the Pueblo economy. Most of the Pueblos became hired workers. In present-day Pueblo communities a process of socioeconomic differentiation is taking place. An intelligentsia and leaders in the struggle for Indian rights have emerged among the Pueblo.

The city is the center of a vast irrigated farming region (primarily vegetables). Coal and metal ores are mined nearby.
Pueblo the name given in the 16th century by the Spanish to the permanent settlements of the Indians in the southwestern part of North America. Pueblos often consisted of a single multiroom, multistory (as many as five or six stories) dwelling that housed 1,000 to 3,000 persons. They were built of sandstone slabs or adobe bricks. The ground floor served as a storage area and had no windows or doors; the living quarters were above the flat roof of the ground floor. The upper stories, which rose upward in the form of terraces, were connected by ladders. The layout of a pueblo was usually U-shaped; sometimes the pueblo formed a circle with blank exterior walls and an inner courtyard. Some pueblos consisted of one- or two-story dwellings joined to form a single complex by a wall. A classic architectural landmark from the height of the Pueblo period is Pueblo Bonito (12th century), a circular 600-room residential fortress having blank exterior walls and religious structures in the center of the courtyard. Pueblo cliff dwellings also existed but were abandoned by the time the Spanish arrived. These multiroom, multistory dwellings were built under cliff overhangs or were cut into cliffs. The multistory, communal pueblos have given way to one-room, single-family adobe huts with dirt floors and to small houses with three or four rooms (among prosperous Indians). IU. P.
