Additional Details:
The Pueblo of Cochiti, ten miles north of Domingo, New Mexico, on the main line of the Santa Fe, was found by Onate in 1598 and was the seat of the Spanish Mission of San Buenaventura in 1680. The church is still standing. In spite of the fact that the Cochiti are nominally Catholics, they are intensely conservative and still preserve their ancient religious rites
