I remember seeing steel helmets allegedly excavated from there. That was in the 70s but was pretty cool. Swords and trinket-ey stuff too.

Somewhere in that Link or somewhere in that search exercise it was suggested that the Spanish took over that position after it was long abandoned. Surely by the Indians. That it may have been abandoned by hundreds of years before the Spanish.

I don't get too interested in that place. It has a great history and some very cool things HAVE been excavated from there.

My curiosity was never worth getting blasted though.

A man's got to know his limitations.
