Ep 13: Border Towns Part 1: The Children of the Cloudy River

Who are the Children of the Cloudy River? How did the ancient people who lived between the US-Mexico border arrive and establish their culture? Who was Amaiké? Why is Juan Bautista  De Anza so important in the Southwestern United States? What is a Kuri Kuri? Who are the Seven tribes of the Yumano-Cochimi? What was the Pimeria Alta? How did the Cerro Prieto come into existence?

 

All these questions and more in the first episode of a new series all about the Border Towns of Northern Mexico in collaboration with Pike Productions on Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@PikeProductions23
