Pueblo (people) (Spanish pueblo,"village"), Native Americans living in compact, apartment-like villages of stone or adobe in northwestern New Mexico and northeastern Arizona.

They belong to four distinct linguistic groups, but the cultures of the different villages are closely related. The eastern villages, located along the upper Río Grande near Santa Fe and Albuquerque, include Isleta, Jemez, Nambe, Picuris, San Ildefonso, San Juan, Santa Clara, and Taos, whose inhabitants speak Tanoan languages; and Cochiti, Santa Ana, Santo Domingo, San Felipe, and Zia, where Keresan languages are spoken.

Two slightly westward Keresan pueblos, Acoma Pueblo and Laguna, along with the Zuñi and Hopi pueblos, make up the western villages.

Since about 1700 the Zuñi have been concentrated in one large village in westernmost New Mexico. Their language shows no certain relation to any other language.

The Hopi live on or near three mesas in northeastern Arizona. Their language is part of the Uto-Aztecan language family.

The Hopi pueblos include Mishongnovi, Shongopovi, Shupapulovi, Sichomavi, Oraibi, and the Tewa-Hopi village of Hano, founded about 1700 by Tewa-speaking refugees.
