European Colonization Motives · US History

The primary cause of the Pueblo Revolt (1680) against the Spanish was:

  1. The Spanish refusal to trade horses for corn
  2. A prolonged and bitter dispute over the rightful ownership of the Grand Canyon region
  3. The sudden arrival of French explorers in New Mexico
  4. The suppression of indigenous religious practices and the demands of the Encomienda
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The suppression of indigenous religious practices and the demands of the Encomienda

Led by Pope, the Pueblo people successfully drove the Spanish out of New Mexico for over a decade. When the Spanish returned, they were generally more tolerant of local religious traditions and less demanding of labor.
