Picuris Indians

White historians are wrong about Pueblo Indians facts including Picuris Indian Tribe of New Mexico. Truth is, Pueblo Indians Civilization was most advanced known Indian civilization of America. Below is a list of Pueblo Indian Reservations and a map of Picuris Reservation. They are related to Apache's and Navajo's who are an admixture of Anishinabe, other eastern tribes, and Pueblo Indians. These supposed Athabascan people live in southwestern United States and northern Mexico. According to 1832s Edinburgh Encyclopedia, Athabascan People are Algonquian or speak Ojibway. They wrote that they were Lenni Lenape. From a western location, Lenni Lenape or Ojibway's, forced their way east and took control of all land from Missouri River to Atlantic Ocean. They then sent detachments of their soldiers to Hudsons Bay. From there, they were sent to Beaufort Sea where they gave rise to Athabascan Tribes. Ojibway 19th century authors back up that information. They wrote that Ojibway's forced their way east from a western location. So Apache's and Navajo's are in fact Ojibway. They won't accept it because they believe what white historians wrote concerning their history.Below are demographics of this Reservation and all other Pueblo Reservations. Below that, is more historical information about Pueblo History.

Ojibway People have lived out west for an extremely long time. Over a thousand years ago, Ojibway Soldiers subjugated Pueblo Indians in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Texas and possibly Kansas (El Quartelejo) and Oklahoma, as well as Chihuahua and Sonora. They mixed their culture and language with their subjects. They also adopted their civilized way of life. After whites invaded, many Ojibway People eventually left their civilized settlements to live in mountainous terrain. They commenced to war upon Italian or Spanish forces in what is now Arizona, New Mexico and northern Mexico. They were Ojibway Traditionalists who followed prophecy. They repeatedly launched assaults against Italian and Spanish soldiers and any Pueblo Indians who supported them. Of course, those Pueblo Indians who fled to mountainous terrain, are today's Apache's and Navajo's who are really Algonquin Ojibway's.

Pueblo Indians ancestors were discovered by either Italian or Spanish Soldier Francisco Vasquez de Coronado, in 1539. At that time, Spain was under Italian or Repulic of Genoa rule. On August 10, 1680 Ojibway Soldiers who had fled to mountainous terrain, attacked Italian and Spanish military forces throughout Arizona and New Mexico and drove them out. It may have been a part of King Philips war which was fought between 1675 and 1678. Ojibway People were united back in those times. Read Seven Fires Prophecy. Actually Ojibway Soldiers had been warring upon Italian and Spanish Soldiers years before they drove them out in 1680. In 1680, that war intensified and culminated with Ojibway Soldiers driving Italian and Spanish People out. They (Spanish Soldiers) returned in 1692 and brought those Pueblos they once ruled, back under their control except Cochiti, Cieneguilla, Santo Domingo and Jemez. Many Indians from those settlements relocated to where Laguna is and made that lake. In 1698, Ojibway leaders met with Italian and Spanish leaders and reached a compromise in which they allowed them to reestablish Christian churches and return to their old settlements. Whites or Italians and Spanish were not numerous. Not much higher than 2,000 people in all. Italian and Spanish leaders were forbidden to intefere with native religious beliefs. It remained that way with sporadic Ojibway assaults against both Indians and whites if they did not follow agreements.

In 1675, Popay who led a revolt against Spanish rule in 1680, was arrested for practicing witchcraft. He was really arrested for leading resistance against Spanish rule. As a result of intense Ojibway assaults, Popay was released soon after his arrest. He then moved to Taos and commenced plans for expanding assaults against Spanish military forces and their idiotic Indian allies. By 1680, Ojibway Soldiers had defeated and driven Italian and Spanish Soldiers out including their Indian allies. They retreated to El Paso with their Indian allies. In 1699, Laguna Pueblo was established by Ojibways who first created a rather large lake to defend themselves. They supposedly allowed a white Christian priest to supervise construction of Laguna. That is not true. Probably construction of a church but not Laguna Pueblo. Future research must be conducted about King Philips War or Pueblo Revolt of 1680, to determine what actually transpired. White historians are adamant that Italian and Spanish Soldiers returned to some specific pueblos asking that they return to Spanish rule or more realistically, if they could return to their old Italian and Spanish settlements, from El Paso. It don't happen that way. Everyone knows that. As mentioned, a compromise was reached in 1698. Ojibway Soldiers launched sporadic assaults against Italian and Spanish military forces until Americans forced their way to that region. Afterwards, fighting intensified. Fighting lasted until 1890s. A lake once existed within Laguna Territory. Thus, they named themselves Lake People. In their language it's pronounced as Kawaika which means lake. Similar to an Ojibway word for artificial lake or Reservoir which is Za-ga-i-gan. Spanish word for lake is Lago. In Italian it's also Lago. Ojibway word for a natural lake is ga-mi. So we know from Ka-wa-i-ka that that lake was human made. It should be pronounced as Ka-wa-i-kan and not Ka-wa-i-ka.
