Picuris Pueblo (/pɪkəˈriːs/; Tiwa: P'įwweltha [p’ī̃wːēltʰà]) is a historic pueblo in Taos County, New Mexico, United States. The federally recognized tribe of Pueblo people inhabit the community. Picurís Pueblo is a member of the Eight Northern Pueblos. Their own name for their pueblo is P'įwweltha, meaning "mountain warrior place" or "mountain pass place." They speak the Picuris dialect of the Northern Tiwa language, part of the Kiowa-Tanoan language family.[5] For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined that community as a census-designated place (CDP). The 2010 census[6] estimated that 68 people lived in the CDP, while 267 people in the U.S. reported being of the tribal group Picuris alone[7] and 439 reported being of the tribal group Picuris alone or in combination with other groups.[8]
