One of the earliest Spanish land grants in the U.S., it was originally the site of a 13th century Keresan Village. Granted to Francisco Anaya de Almazan by the Spanish government prior to 1680. The grant was resettled after the reconquest of New Mexico in 1693 and has been continuously occupied since.
