Nambe Pueblo and the surrounding Nambe Indian Reservation anchor the southern portion of this landscape, where the Pojoaque Creek drainage meets the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The mapping reflects a complex network of Spanish land grants, including the Santa Cruz Grant and the Santo Domingo de Cundiyo Grant, which have defined local land use and community boundaries for centuries. Settlements like Chimayo and Cundiyo are situated along fertile valley floors, supported by a system of irrigation ditches and the perennial flow of the Santa Cruz River and Rio Quemado.
