Deni Seymour says her discovery could rewrite the history of the Coronado Expedition.
Arizona archaeologist says she's found artifacts linked to famed 1540 expedition:"A history-changing site"A Tucson archaeologist has unveiled a discovery in Santa Cruz County that she thinks could rewrite the history of the Coronado Expedition.
In 1540, Spanish conquistador Francisco Vázquez de Coronado led an armed expedition of more than 2,500 Europeans and Mexican-Indian allies through what is now Mexico and the American Southwest in search of riches. Seymour believes her discovery proves once and for all that Coronado and company actually entered Arizona along the Santa Cruz River before eventually heading east.Bill Hartmann is an accomplished Tucson astronomer, who has also been investigating and writing about Coronado for more than 20 years. In 2014, the University of Arizona Press published his book on the subject,"Searching for Golden Empires.
"I think Deni's finds are certainly fascinating and probably indicate the presence of the Coronado expedition," Flint said."I don't think that that means the usual reconstruction of the route going north has to be abandoned. The evidence is very strong that they came up through the Rio Sonora." Along with the central structure where the wall gun was found, she said she has identified what appear to be six surrounding lookout stations, three of which show"clear evidence of being attacked."
"We have clear evidence of battle," said Seymour, who has written dozens of academic books and papers about the region and its early native inhabitants."There's no question." The question of whether it qualifies as the first European settlement in the U.S. seems to depend on how you define the word settlement.And it wasn't the first regardless, Flint added. By the time San Geronimo III was established, Coronado had already traveled deep into present-day New Mexico, where the expedition clashed with native people and lived for months in some of their captured pueblos.
Just over $8,400 had been raised so far for the film, but the crowdfunding campaign was still well short of its $100,000 goal.
