El Pope
Po'pay, sometimes spelled Popé, (Tewa: Poʼpʼay, pronounced [pòʔpʼèː], lit. 'ripe squash'; c. 1630 – c. 1692) was a Tewa religious leader from Ohkay Owingeh, who led the Pueblo Revolt in 1680 against Spanish colonial rule. In the first successful anticolonial revolt against a European colonial power in the Western Hemisphere, the Pueblo expelled the colonists and kept them out of the territory for twelve years. Thereafter, Po'pay ruled over the Pueblo peoples until his death.
