RFH2THX5–Francisco Vasquez de Coronado (1510-1554) was a Spanish conquistador and epxlorer. He led an expedition north from Mexico in 1540. As he crossed Arizona and New Mexico, he saw the homes of the 'cliff-dwellers' that were hollowed out of rock or built on ledges. Seen here are the inhabitants fleeing from him. They then took refuge in their inaccessible dwellings, and Coronado left.

Butthere was nothing in Quivira to reward Coronado for allhis time and labor, nor to pay back the money he hadborrowed in order to make the expedition.
