Pueblo of Santa Ana
The Keres Speaking pueblo of Santa Ana was established on its present site in 1693, as part of Diego de Vargas' reconquest of New Mexico. The spot, exposed to flooding, was poorly suited for farming, and today the residents live on their farms along the Rio Grande instead of the pueblo, which is used as a ceremonial site.

Located at the junction of Hwy 550 and Indian Service Route 74, north of Bernalillo.
