In 1832, the Mexican government made a large community land grant to Manuel Martinez and other settlers, but settlement was delayed by raids by Utes, Jicarilla Apaches and Navajos. Tierra Amarilla, first called Nutritas, became the Rio Arriba County seat in 1880.
Tierra Amarilla AFS P-8 Historic District was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on February 26, 2001.
