Santa Ana Pueblo has a deep, beautiful and storied history. From the time of prehistory that includes traditional stories of emergence and migration to locations such as Mesa Verde and Chaco Canyon; through the trials, tribulations, and early economic success with the entrada of Spain and Mexico from the 1500s through the early 1800s; to the imposition of the U.S. Government; the Pueblo of Santa Ana is still here and stronger than ever. The Pueblo has demonstrated its resiliency and vibrancy through preservation of its languages, customs and traditions, investment in its community, and its desire to continually “move the needle” in a direction that will enhance the quality of life for its people.
