A Brief History of the Laguna People

  Laguna pueblo has nearly 4,000 people on over half a million acres. The pueblo has six villages spred over a semi-arid landscape. The Laguna speak primarily Keresan dialect. This pueblo is the most recently established of all the pueblos. The Laguna pueblo ancestors came from the North. The people were refugees from many tribes that were fleeing the Spanish reconquest of 1699. Refugees from the Hopi, Acoma, Zuni, San Felipe, Zia and Sandia tribes reside here. Four dialects are spoken on this Pueblo due to its diversity. Each of the six villages also has its own slant on ceremonies and on the dates that they take place. The St. Joseph Mission Church in Old Laguna Village is considered one of the most beautiful Spanish Mission churches. It contains some beautiful and important paintings. This church is still in use today.
