Your land is part of history

If you own land in the San Luis Valley, be proud to know that there's a lot of history on it. On August of 1779, Juan Bautista de Anza, governor and military commander of the Spanish province of New Mexico, led an army of 800 men to protect villagers at Taos, which had been victimized by raids from the Jupe Comanche.

Anza marched north of Taos at night to avoid detection and they went through San Luis Valley to finally find and battle the Comanches. In the fight, they killed the main chief Cuerno Verde ("Green Horn" in English) or Tabivo Naritgant in the native tongue. The death of the chief drastically reduced the raids in the area and the valley was open to settlements.
