Abstract

For twelve years after the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 what was left of Spanish New Mexico was scattered through the El Paso district, with El Paso serving through most of that period as the official capital. Possibly because the area has been a sort of everyman's land, involved in North Mexican, Texan, and New Mexican history, it has been either neglected or distorted by historians. The drama of the beginning and of the end of the twelve years has been exploited, and one excursion into the middle period completed. There has been no treatment of the twelve years as a whole.
