Discover the Traditional Bread from Santa Fe, New Mexico
About the city of Santa Fe
The earliest inhabitants of Santa Fe were native American peoples. Archaeologists in Santa Fe’s historic downtown have found evidence of settlements as early as 600 AD. In 1610, ten years before the Mayflower Pilgrims of England founded the Plymouth colony on the east coast of the United States, Spanish explorers established Santa Fe.
When Spanish settlers arrived in Santa Fe, they found Native American people who possessed artistic traditions stretching back for a millennium. These ancient customs and crafts were an active part of their daily lives and remain an important part of contemporary native culture.
Santa Fe is fortunate that native communities continue to share these traditions, including weaving, pottery, jewelry, dance, and food.
