Ohkwee Ówîngeh

Ohkwee Ówîngeh was a Tewa pueblo on the Rio Grande in present-day northern New Mexico, founded around 1200 by groups whose traditions recalled migration from the north.

In 1598 Juan de Oñate renamed it San Juan de los Caballeros and made it the first Spanish capital of New Mexico; the seat moved to Santa Fe in 1610. Po'pay, a religious leader born here and imprisoned in 1675, organized the 1680 Pueblo Revolt. Diego de Vargas reconquered the Rio Grande pueblos in 1692, and San Juan later passed from Spanish to Mexican rule.
