I can’t tell you how excited I am to visit this site. Occupied for 1000s of years before it was settled in 800. A sprawling village by 1450, home to a people we now call Puebloan. A rich & vibrant culture, conquered by the Spanish in 1600s, France & Mexico followed, now the USA. pic.twitter.com/r8WYqXXfQM
