1961 Map of Acoma Pueblo

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Acoma Pueblo and its historic core at Acoma Village occupy the heart of this landscape, situated atop a dramatic landform surrounded by a network of mesas and buttes. This survey, based on 1956 photography and field-checked in the early 1960s, documents the geographic relationship between the Acoma Pueblo Indian Reservation and the adjacent Laguna Indian Reservation. The terrain is defined by striking features like Mesa Encantada and Dinosaur Rock, highlighting the geological isolation that shaped centuries of settlement here. Drainage patterns are led by Acoma Creek, while vital water sources such as Acoma Springs and Dripping Springs are noted in an otherwise arid environment. Named landmarks like Woods Mesa, Rabbit Butte, and Petoch Butte provide essential navigational points within the extensive tribal lands.
